Description

This casebook uses problems, exercises, and case studies to examine issues related to a wide range of natural resources—from forests and wildlife to oceans and rivers. The book discusses:

The economic, scientific, political, and ethical considerations that drive natural resources policy
The natural resources management challenges presented by common pool resources, scientific uncertainty, mismatched scale, market failures, and institutional adequacy

Exploring these themes, the book then explicates the basic legal regimes for a range of resources. It also considers natural resources law and management on both public and private land, as well as in international settings.
