Old growth forest preservation in British Columbia and the American Pacific Northwest : an account of a debate for survivalWaatainen, Jeffrey Bernard 11 1900 (has links)
This essay offers a study of old growth forest policy in British Columbia and
the American Pacific Northwest and, in so doing, attempts to contribute to the sparse
comparative environmental literature that uses Canada as a case study. Specifically,
the essay addresses the question of why old growth forest preservation policy
divergences so dramatically between British Columbia and the American Pacific
Northwest.
After establishing that American Pacific Northwest and British Columbia old
growth forest preservation policy diverges, the author employs a chronological
methodology to reconstruct the current old growth preservation policy outcomes in
both jurisdictions. The author then identifies a series of variables that affect old
growth forest preservation policy in both jurisdictions, and examines each as a force
of divergence. The essay discusses the different influences of two non-institutional
variables-science and economics-and two institutional variables-federalism and
legalism-on American Pacific Northwest and British Columbia old growth policy.
The essay concludes by discussing the question of how each variable works
with one another to produce this instance of policy divergence. The author finds that
all four variables collaborate with one another and contribute to the divergence.
However, the essay concludes that the major determining factor in this case of policy
divergence is the interplay of the two institutional variables.
