At a time when wildlife policy management becomes increasingly
complex and when effective administration is of paramount
importance, William R. Mangun has designed a study analyzing the
public policymaking process and wildlife conservation issues today.
As editor, he has brought together an interdisciplinary group of
scholars and practitioners to give a conceptual framework and
in-depth evaluation of practical issues in wildlife management. The
book stresses the importance of the human dimension and calls for
knowledgeable public involvement. Charting new ground, the text
should help resource managers and behavioral scientists, students,
and professionals in public administration, political science, and
wildlife protection find new ways to overcome current problems. The
book begins with an overview of the enormous changes in wildlife
management over the past 50 years, and then provides a theoretical
framework for understanding wildlife policy. Strategies and
operations, intergovernmental policies and programs, issues in
resource allocation and sustainable development, and organizational
problems describe contemporary political, economic, social, and
ethical conflicts and administrative pitfalls. Case studies range
from problems like the Exxon Valdez oil spill, the plight of sea
turtles, and endangered species plans to matters demonstrating
local, state, national, and transnational priorities. The book
demonstrates that a lack of understanding of the policy process
will lead to compromised effectiveness, diminished professional
pride, and relative powerlessness in overcoming the growing
problems confronting those concerned with wildlife protection and
conservation today.
