Poverty amidst plenty; some recent reflections
Public concern over the well being of the economically disadvantaged in Western societies is continuously in flux, as is evident by the extent of media coverage and political debate on the subject of poverty at any given point in time. The need to pay greater attention to the issue resonates most in the public conscience when we are forced to face our own vulnerabilities and significance in the world in which we live. The increased attention to r…
Preliminary Evidence for an Emerging Nonmetropolitan Mortality Penalty in the United States
We discovered an emerging non-metropolitan mortality penalty by contrasting 37 years of age-adjusted mortality rates for metropolitan versus nonmetropolitan US counties. During the 1980s, annual metropolitan–nonmetropolitan differences averaged 6.2 excess deaths per 100000 nonmetropolitan population, or approximately 3600 excess deaths; however, by 2000 to 2004, the difference had increased more than 10 times to average 71.7 excess deaths, or app…

Understanding community forestry
This paper provides an assessment of the conceptual basis of community forestry from around the world, based on case studies presented in the literature, mainly over the last decade. More than 400 documents were examined for this comprehensive qualitative meta-study (meta-theory, meta-analysis, meta-method, and meta-synthesis) of community forestry. An overall conclusion is offered regarding the extent to which community forestry can be adapted t…

Appalachia is considered one of the nation's poorest areas. Many communities live in isolation. The material use of the natural landscape has affected citizens' views of the viability of and potential for sustainable resource practices. In many resource dependent communities, land is externally owned and controlled. Despite living and working in areas with enormous natural resource wealth, residents have only limited access to these resources. Re…
