Wilderness has and continues to have very different meanings for various groups of people. The "dilemma" occurs because some special interest groups want to "tame" and use wilderness resources while others demand a "hands-off" preservation policy. To cope with these two extremes, government agencies have enacted a series of regulations and laws. Private citizens have banded together to work for suitable wilderness policies. This book examines all aspects of the complex wilderness question including legislation, water rights and miner exploration.

The 2013 introduction of nine new real estate laws promises to revolutionize the traditional real estate market in Saudi Arabia. Yet while Saudi Arabia seeks foreign investment to promote the real estate sector, most of these laws have not been translated.

The new real estate laws are translated and where necessary, annotated.

Every real estate investor, practitioner and loan officer active in the Saudi market should keep a copy close by. The author, Michael O'Kane, has worked in the Kingdom for more than a decade as a legal consultant to the government and as a practicing attorney.

Struggles over land and water have determined much of New Mexico's long history. The outcome of such disputes, especially in colonial times, often depended on which party had a strong advocate to argue a case before a local tribunal or on appeal. This book is partly about the advocates who represented the parties to these disputes, but it is most of all about the Hispanos, Indians, and Genizaros (Hispanicized nomadic Indians) themselves and the land they lived on and fought for. Having written about Hispano land grants and Pueblo Indian grants separately, Malcolm Ebright now brings these narratives together for the first time, reconnecting them and resurrecting lost histories. He emphasizes the success that advocates for Indians, Genizaros, and Hispanos have had in achieving justice for marginalized people through the return of lost lands and by reestablishing the right to use those lands for traditional purposes.
