Produktbeschreibung
Traditional public participation in resource
management planning and decision making processes in
British Columbia has often resulted in little or no
public influence in the process, or over the
decisions made. This study of the Bulkley Valley
Community Resources Board (BVCRB) explores how public
input through this body was conceptualized and
incorporated into the Bulkley Land and Resource
Management Plan (LRMP) process. This work explores
the linkages between public participation, community
conflict, community organization and community power.
Community support and community representation are
central to the BVCRB's influence in the development
of the Bulkley LRMP. The goal of this work is to
examine how a level of public input which went beyond
tokenism was achieved and resulted in community
control and community power. This provides insight
into the legitimacy of community organization,
community representation, and community support for
public participation to influence resource management
planning and decision making.
