Nature’s Burdens
Daniel Nelson’s new book is an excellent survey of conservation policy in the United States since 1980. Two aspects of the book are of central significance. First, as the title indicates, Nelson focuses on conservation, encompassing land and resources management, wild animals and plants, and biodiversity more broadly. He does not address issues of pollution and human health. Second, the book is deeply influenced by the rise of conservation biolog…
Whither We Are Tending”
IN PREVIOUS WORK, WE ARGUED that much of modern environmental policymaking has been characterized by “green drift,” a “slow and even halting general movement in policy directions favored by environmentalists.”1 The logic of the argument is that the legislative gridlock that has held on most environmental issues since the late 1980s has locked into place the raft of pro-environment, “golden-era” laws passed in the 1960s and 1970s. On many issues, …

Managing the Environment, Managing Ourselves
Local Environmental Groups and the Creation of Social Capital
Scholars who have studied local environmental groups in the United States have tended to agree about three related, stylized facts: that such groups are widespread, that they are pursuing a diverse set of activities, and, at least implicitly, that they are creating social capital that significantly affects environmental policy. However, a healthy skepticism about these claims among academics and within the policy com-munity exists due to a lack o…
Forests in Time
The Greening of Social Capital
By undertaking a census of all agricultural, outdoor recreational, and environmental groups (land-based groups) in two adjacent counties in Vermont, we demonstrate the dramatic increase of local environmental groups in the last 15 years. Building on the methodologies of Kempton et al. (2001), we first show that official lists of nonprofit groups-from the Vermont Secretary of State, the Internal Revenue Service, and local grassroots directories-si…

The United States Army, Natural Resources, and Political Development in the Nineteenth Century
Throughout the nineteenth century the federal government undertook a number of natural resources policy initiatives. During this "state of courts and parties," the federal state needed some administrative presence to help it supply public goods within the development-oriented distributive politics. The United States Army was called upon to play this role in water projects and scientific geography. Toward the end of the century, the Army's natural…
Explaining U.S. Public Lands Politics
The fundamental difference between George Gonzalez's interpretation of grazing politics on the United States public lands in the twentieth century, as well as his other scholarship on public lands politics, and my own is our macrotheoretical approach. Gonzalez makes use of what he terms a business dominance perspective, “which holds that producer groups in conjunction with economic elites dominate federal policy making.” I, in turn, use a state-s…

Who Controls Public Lands
In this historical and comparative study, Christopher McGrory Klyza explores why land-management policies in mining, forestry, and grazing have followed different paths and explains why public-lands policy in general has remained virtually static over time. According to Klyza, understanding the different philosophies that gave rise to each policy regime is crucial to reforming public-lands policy in the future. Klyza begins by delineating how pre…
Privileged Ideas and State Interests
The puzzle that intrigues us is the source of interests that guide the state in instances of state autonomy. We argue that one important source of these interests is ideas: When relative state autonomy exists over long periods of time, there is a strong likelihood of a privileged idea that informs state interests. State actors direct state policy during autonomous periods by adopting and privileging particular ideas (institutionalization), result…
Ideas, Institutions, and Policy Patterns
From the mid–1800s through the mid–1980s, the federal government initiated programs to manage three types of resources on the lands that it controlled. The discovery of gold in California and elsewhere in the West prompted the first government policy in the 1860s. Debate over the nation's forests began in the 1870s, and a system of national forests to be managed by a federal Forest Service was created in the late 1800s and early 1900s. And in the…
Wilderness on the Rocks
A Window of Autonomy
The state has made a comeback in political science over the last twenty years. A synthesis of sorts of traditional and behavioral approaches to the study of politics, statist theory, in its methodology, is at once historical, institutional, and empirical. This study of the U.S. Forest Service both illustrates and critiques the statist approach, and also adds to the growing literature on the Progressive Movement's role in the building of an Americ…
