This research investigates perceptions of desert landscape held by different actor groups (resident versus expert group – including land developers, local politicians, city planners and NGOs ) in N ew M exico, USA . The results of this study found that although people share common appreciation of cultural and aesthetic landscape values, different perceptions and valuations are conflicting when special interests and needs of actors are apparent. NGOs and residents demonstrate their opposition to the current land development patterns and management practices. Results also revealed that the political and cultural elements of the landscape in the area are important drivers of growth patterns
