The book, a study of policymaking for conservation in Latin
America, employs comparative analysis to explain the policy process
in three countries—Argentina, Chile, and Costa Rica. Case studies
and examples of important policy decisions made in the three
countries are employed to help illuminate variations in the policy
process from country to country. The analysis is set against the
constant conflict between demands for economic development and
conservation. Hopkins has selected important examples of policy
problems in the areas of conservation, national parks, and
environmental protection in the three countries and set these
against the political system in each country for comparison. The
cases range from the controversial issue of Lago Chungara in Chile
to Corcovado National Park in Costa Rica to the Yacyreta
hydroelectric project in Argentina. The study aims at beginning to
fill an important gap in the literature on national parks,
conservation, and environmental protection in Latin America. As
such, the volume will be of interest to students of contemporary
Latin America, policymaking, and environmental studies.
