This book offers a comparative analysis of organizations and
networks involved in nature protection in France, Germany, Italy,
the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Sweden, the UK and the USA. It
traces their development from their origins, more than a century
ago, to the present day. Throughout this period, nature protection
has remained an enduring concern to civil society and continues to
be a major stream within environmentalism. However, strategies,
public support, and political success vary greatly among the
countries studied. Combining rich empirical evidence and
theoretical analysis, the book sheds light on the important
challenges nature protection faces today. Providing a detailed
description of all the major nature protection organizations and
networks, including overviews of their current membership,
activities, and as far as available, budgets, Protecting Nature
will be of great interest to lecturers and postgraduate students in
social science fields, as well as researchers in the fields of
environmental policy, environmental NGOs, social movements, civil
society, nature management and policy. Members of nature
protection, environmental and other civil society organizations who
seek a better understanding of the historical development of nature
protection organizations and networks, as well as the strategies
employed by those organizations, will also find much to interest
them in this book.
