Understanding agents of change in amenity gateways of the Greater Yellowstone region
Recognition of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem – lands that surround Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks – was hoped to facilitate regional sustainability. However, with over 30 federal, tribal, state, and local agencies; thousands of private businesses and landowners; over 175 non-government organizations; and more than 16 million users annually, the region has proven difficult to manage comprehensively. It is increasingly important to …
Alternative and Virtual Rurality
Affection for agrarian livelihoods and rural and small‐town environments has long been held by residents in many of the world's "more developed" countries. Although the rural proportion of the U.S. population has shrunk to a minority over the last century, fondness for rurality continues to manifest itself in a number of ways. Attachment to the rural ideal or rural idyll can be considered as attachment to the idea of a type of place, rather than …
Rural Society in the G lobal N orth
Rural society is highly varied across the world's most economically developed countries, or “Global North,” as well as across the world as a whole. Aspects of rural society include numbers and densities of rural residents, natural resources, and related livelihoods as well as economic characteristics, demographic characteristics, cultural practices, religious and political tendencies, and sense of place. In addition to agriculture, people living …
Milking the Plains
Western Kansas has an historical identification with cattle, with a focus on cattle ranching and more specifically since the 1950s, beef-cattle feedlots. Since the mid-1990s large dairy operations have moved into southwestern Kansas. Today more than twenty large dairies house more than 70,000 milk cows. These operate as confined feeding operations similar to beef-cattle feedlots. Regional advantages for the dairy industry include affordable land …

Feminism and the mastery of nature
Early national park adoption in sub‐Saharan Africa
It is widely supposed that national parks were invented with Yellowstone National Park in 1872, from whence they have diffused around the world. Adoption of parks within Africa can be better understood and traced by considering the original motivations regarding reserve establishment. Historical patterns of national park and reserve adoption in Africa's biogeographic regions are analyzed. Results suggest that parks were adopted early in southern …
Wilderness research
References to the value of preserving wilderness and other natural areas frequently cite their potential value for science and research. Analysis of U.S. Forest Service (USFS) and U.S. National Park Service (NPS) Wildernesses revealed strong differences in research use of areas with similar legislated purposes but under different administrative agencies. Research in USFS areas tends to be much more visitor‐oriented than in NPS areas, where resear…
