The Government of Natural Resources explores government scientific activity in Quebec from Confederation until the Second World War. Scientific and technical personnel are an often quiet presence within the state, but they play an integral role. By tracing the history of geology, forestry, fishery, and agronomy services, St?phane Castonguay reveals how the exploitation of natural resources became a tool of government. As it shaped territorial and environmental transformations, scientific activity contributed to state formation and expanded administrative capacity. This thoughtful reconceptualization of resource development reaches well beyond provincial borders, changing the way we think of science and state power.

Описание: A comprehensive analysis of the social, political, and economic role of forests as one of the principal single-staple industries in British Columbia, this book explores the history of forestry in the province, legislation and governmental control, labour unions, community and industry structure, employment conditions for men and women, job security, and “boom or bust” ideologies.
Описание: Setting the Standard chronicles the emergence and implicationsof an ambitious experiment in civil-society-led global governance: theForest Stewardship Council. Drawing on a pioneering case study of thisnegotiation process, this book explores the challenges associated withimplementing the FSC's global vision on the ground. Indeed, theestablishment of an FSC standard for British Columbia was achieved onlyafter difficult and protracted negotiations at the regional, national,and global levels. This important work also undertakes a detailedcomparative analysis of FSC standards and standard-setting processeselsewhere and grapples with the broader implications for globalgovernance and regulatory theory.

Описание: Public concern about worsening global environmental and socialconditions has led to skepticism about the efficacy of voluntarycorporate social responsibility (CSR) programs, and to pressure forgovernmental CSR engagement. One of the first studies to investigatethe role of the state in CSR, this book provides insight into the newgovernance model of private-public co-regulation emerging around theglobe. Examining forest certification in Canada, the US, and Sweden,Lister draws on extensive interviews with experts to offer uniqueevidence on CSR governance, ultimately arguing the importance of CSR asa supplement to rather than a substitute for state regulation.
Описание: This book explores how integrated management of environmental resources via a Nexus Approach can help to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It takes a process-oriented view on what should or needs to be done to implement a Nexus Approach and how this relates to SDGs. After sketching the background and conceptual outline, contributions to the book explore key aspects of monitoring and implementation. Specifically, they: focus on the importance of monitoring resource use and how to advance it at the international level to support SDG implementation, exemplify the resources perspective on the nexus approach by exploring how to close the nitrogen cycle and stay within planetary boundaries, elaborate on proven and emerging strategies for nexus implementation, highlighting means to enhance, monitor and analyse stakeholder participation, explain how the horizontal and vertical nexus dimensions interact and can support SDG implementation. The book sheds new light on key aspects of the interrelation between SDGs and the Nexus Approach and provides specific recommendations how to advance it.
