Talking about my generation
The values held by policy makers can influence policy change. But what those values are and their source has received little attention. We argue that one source of these values – and associated differences – is rooted in generational ‘social frames’. We provide evidence from an exploratory survey in British Columbia, Canada, where transformative changes in water policy are being implemented, which include potential changes in water governance to …
Linking perceptions of climate change impacts with adaptation
Most forest-owners perceived climate change (CC), and only 60 % took adaptive actions. • Higher off-farm incomes and risk tolerance reduce CC perception and adaptation. • Higher forest cover appears to offer an adaptive strategy (increase farms' resilience). • Policies to raise water/fodder availability would allow a better adaptive response. • Preparing landowners to deal with risks and uncertainty would improve adaptive actions. Adaptation is r…
Reconciling Institutional Logics Within First Nations Forestry-Based Social Enterprises
The institutional frameworks that Indigenous groups put in place to govern economic processes within their communities are critical to the advancement of their diverse cultural-ecological, social, and economic development goals. Through the lens of institutional logics, this article examines the ways in which First Nations community sawmill enterprises in British Columbia, Canada, navigate the sectoral demands brought by a productivist paradigm o…
How do decision makers ́ ethnicity and religion influence the use of forests? Evidence from Chile
Reclaiming Indigenous Governance
The effect of institutional arrangements on economic performance among first nations
New frontiers of forest economics, III
Trust, institutions, and indigenous self‐governance
Trust is important to the institutions that make societies successful. Globally, Indigenous peoples are actively building institutions for self‐governance, but there remains little empirical work on trust in this context. To address this gap, we use a mixed methods approach to explore three levels of trust among individual members from three related, but politically distinct First Nations (Indigenous peoples) in British Columbia, Canada. British …
Maintaining accountability between levels of governance in Indigenous economic development
Many Indigenous communities in Canada have established economic development corporations (EDCs) to support economic development that meets community goals. Indigenous EDCs, like social enterprises, typically prioritize multiple socio‐economic goals and may be used to limit political influence on business operations; however, complete separation can be detrimental to success. This article explores formal mechanisms used by Indigenous EDCs to maint…
The principal-agent problem and climate change adaptation on public lands
The effect of communication on individual preferences for common property resources
Community forestry in British Columbia
Ecosystem Services and Beyond
Ecosystem services research has been focused on the ways that humans directly benefit from goods and services, and economic valuation techniques have been used to measure those benefits. We argue that, although it is appropriate in some cases, this focus on direct use and economic quantification is often limiting and can detract from environmental research and effective management, in part by crowding out other understandings of human–environment…
Licensure of Complementary and Alternative Practitioners
For over 120 years, the Supreme Court has upheld the principle that states may regulate the practice of medicine and determine what is and is not lawful In Dent v. West Virginia, the State of West Virginia refused a license to Frank Dent, a member of the "eclectic" sect of physicians who incorporated botanical remedies into medicine. Dent had graduated from the American Medical Eclectic College of Cincinnati, but could not establish that he had a…

British Columbia's Stumpage System
Rent and stumpage in the British Columbia softwood lumber industry have played a pivotal role in the Canada-United States softwood lumber dispute. The goal of the US in the dispute has been to limit lumber exports from Canada and increase domestic American prices. Rent theory shows that BC's stumpage system does not affect softwood lumber exports and thus does not constitute a subsidy. Using estimates of the rents in the BC wood products industry…
