A Watershed Moment

The American West in the Age of Limits

Herausgeber: Frodeman, Robert; Propst, Luther; Brister, Evelyn

Beschreibung

The American West is often portrayed as a place of rugged, unending landscapes presenting us with boundless opportunities. But the land is more fragile and resources more finite than popular perceptions acknowledge. This collection reveals ecological, economic, and social constraints set by community values and the land itself.
