Natural Resource Management: Economic, Political, and Social Forces Influence on Environmental Policies is a compilation of academic essays that scrutinize the underlying rationale driving the formulation of environmental policies. The essays explore the various stakeholders involved in policy development, their motivations, and the repercussions of these policies. Key themes covered include the measurement of citizens' environmental attitudes, cultural and religious influences on policy, and the impact of economic and governmental structures on environmental policy across different countries. Additionally, the collection delves into the role of population growth, economic development, technological advancements, globalization, and shifting values in shaping environmental policy processes. It also delineates the roles of different participants in policy creation, including non-governmental interest groups, industrial factions, and governmental offices. Furthermore, the collection addresses the role of markets, science, conflict, and sustainability in policy formulation. Specific essays examine misconceptions about wilderness areas in the United States, the implementation of carbon emission limits through the cap-and-trade system, and the challenges and initiatives related to environmental social justice, exemplified by a case study in Northeast Portland, Oregon.
