Managing America's Natural Riches
This seminar explores the Federal stewardship of natural resources use and its importance to the continued growth of the United States. By examining alternative strategies for natural resources use and the public benefits those strategies seek to secure, public administrators are able to assess probable economic, environmental, technological, and social consequences of proposed decisions and actions. Major natural resources and technologies, as well as current processes for choosing policy options, are surveyed.
Selected issues cover: land management and stewardship; policy issues in management for multiple use; development and conservation as policy motives; natural resources economics; biodiversity and wildlife conservation; water issues and water law; energy needs and energy strategies; and public perceptions (and misconceptions) of Federal stewardship.
The seminar also covers the policy apparatus regarding U.S. natural resources, in looking at both the formal and informal institutions that influence resources policy in the executive branch, the Congress, special interest groups and the press, and what directions that policy is likely to take over the next few years.
