Theory and Empowerment in Cultural Consultation Programs
For four years after receiving my Ph.D., I was employed by a large consulting firm. One of our principal clients was the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) high-level radioactive waste repository program at Yucca Mountain, Nevada. As the primary planning and regulatory contractor for their project office in Las Vegas, we wrote and sometimes implemented plans for studies of the Yucca Mountain site and for compliance with environmental regulations. …
Landscapes: The Social Construction of Nature and the Environment
A theoretical framework is provided to understand a cultural group's definition of and relationship with nature and the environment. The framework draws on a social constructionist perspective that includes aspects of phenomenology and symbolic interactionism to define 'landscape' as the symbolic environment created by a human act of conferring meaning on nature and the environment. This landscape reflects the selfdefinitions of the people within…

Aircraft Noise and the Practice of Indian Medicine: The Symbolic Transformation of the Environment
An epistemological and theoretical framework is developed for use in sociocultural impact assessment (SIA). This framework is based on the necessity of understanding the symbols and meanings by which a group of people transforms the nonhuman environment symbolically into meaningful sociocultural phenomena. The framework is applied to an SIA of the effects on the practice of Indian medicine among a Native American people that would result from low…
Local Identity, Solidarity, and Trust in Changing Rural Communities
This research continues the effort to understand the sociocultural and social-psychological effects resulting from rapid change in rural communities. Two aspects of social well-being that underlie the concept of community are addressed: a sense of local identity and solidarity and a sense of trust. Change in these perceptions during periods of rapid community growth or decline could indicate a changing sense of community and changing levels of so…
A longitudinal analysis of neighboring in rapidly changing rural places
Social action and social impacts: Subjective interpretation of environmental change
Individuals subjectively interpret the relationship between the social and physical environments and between themselves on the basis of values and beliefs regarding the proper relationship between these environments. It is on the basis of these interpretations that individuals act when confronted with a proposed environmental change. In this manner, social impacts are frequently created. A case study of a small, agriculturally based community tha…
Neighboring Patterns, Social Support, and Rapid Growth: A Comparison Analysis from Three Western Communities
Recently sociologists have devoted considerable attention to the consequences of rapid community growth and change on social relations and social integration, adding to a long tradition of scholarly concern with the social effects of urbanism and modernization. As was characteristic of much of the traditional literature on urbanization, the recent discussions of rapid community growth have tended overwhelmingly to assert various 'social disruptio…
