"Natural Resources and Society: Understanding the Complex Relationship Between Humans and the Environment" is a study of the dynamic interplay between humans and the natural world. The book explores the complex relationship between human societies and the environment, examining how human actions can both impact and be influenced by natural resources. The book covers a broad range of topics, including the history of human resource use, the role of natural resources in economic development, and the environmental impacts of resource extraction and consumption. It also considers the social and cultural factors that shape human interactions with the natural world, and the challenges of sustainable resource management. Overall, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the relationship between humans and the environment, emphasizing the importance of understanding this relationship in order to develop more sustainable and equitable societies.

Written by and for scholars, planners, and policymakers, Natural Resource Management: The Human Dimension focuses on issues such as the publics role in the decision-making processes of ecosystem management that affect how we use (or abuse) resources. It exposes the reader to a wide variety of applications of Human Dimensions Research, as well as to significant issues involved. One of the greatest needs in natural resource management is for a deeper understanding of the intricate relationship between humans and the natural environment. Human Dimensions Research, an interdisciplinary field involving a broad variety of social science approaches, seeks to fill this need by providing multidimensional assessments of peoples’ behavior, attitudes, and expectations toward natural resources and their uses. Written by and for scholars, planners, and policymakers, Natural Resource Management: The Human Dimension focuses on issues such as the publics role in the decision-making processes of ecosystem management that affect how we use (or abuse) resources. It exposes the reader to a wide variety of applications of Human Dimensions Research, as well as to significant issues involved. At a time when we are either loving our forests and parks to death or paving them over, a better understanding of the problems is critical if we are to create workable policies that will preserve and protect our natural resources

In Ranching, Mining, and the Human Impact of Natural Resource Development, Raymond L. Gold observes and reports on people whose lives have been significantly affected by the industrialization of rural communities in the American West. Such community change research is rarely done, so this classic study is invaluable for its real world groundings applicable to a variety of social science theories. The study evolved out of ethnographic research on Western communities done over a full decade.This was the first work of its kind to examine and account for the rise of local citizens' groups on the sense of being a community. Its account of this process covers both ordinarily slow and extraordinarily rapid areas of change in the American West. In this regard it is a contribution to basic social theory, showing clearly the interrelation between small-community and large-society elements of the structure and functioning of community life. No other book brings together the story of social effects of natural resource development projects in the American West.This book shows how to implement a social policy concerning resource development and public agencies. It is intended for people interested in the environment, American society, rural and urban affairs, social impact assessment, and urban structures generally. It is also aimed at industrial and community planners and natural resource development firms.

Traditionally, natural resource economists have examined resource use in isolation of the economy of which it is part. In this thesis, I show theoretically and empirically how natural resource exploitation decisions are linked to other economic sectors in developing countries. These linkages open new possibilities for managing the amount of effort allocated to an open access or common property resource sector. I show theoretically how imperfectly integrated rural households are connected through the use of a common property resource. As the amount of labor in a village economy increases, Nash behavior converges to atomistic competition and the average value of labor in the resource sector equals its marginal value in other sectors. Resource rents dissipate as the number of users increases and resource stocks decrease.In a context of many natural resource users, increasing returns in other sectors (e.g., agriculture) increases economy-wide demand for labor, puts upward pressure on economy wages, and decreases the use of natural resource. Less use allows resource stocks to recover in the long-run. At the same time, increases in income can increase demand for the resource and mitigate or undo improvements in resource stocks. In a Honduran example, I show that higher agricultural prices pull local labor out of an open access fishery. Higher returns in the fishery draw in more labor from outside the local economy and push fish stocks down towards their previous levels. This analysis reveals the potential for improvement by creating a restricted-access commons instead of a pure open access resource sector Chapters 2 and 3 explore household labor allocation decisions to investigate if migration and agricultural productivity influence the use of a local, open access resource in rural Mexico. Having a migrant in the United States increases the probability that a household invests in a gas stove and conditional on this investment, households with a migrant spend fewer days collecting firewood and spend more money on gas for cooking. In addition, agricultural households with higher agricultural productivity and marginal values of labor on the farm spend fewer days collecting firewood and purchase more gas. This occurs as the marginal value of labor on the farm represents the opportunity cost of time allocated to resource extraction.This thesis shows that natural resource exploitation decisions do not happen in isolation. This has implications for understanding the impact of development on natural resource stocks and provides a new toolkit for managing the amount of effort allocated to resource extraction. Even while resource rents remain dissipated, changes in non-resource sectors have the potential to influence resource extraction and the natural capital of a developing community. Altering users' opportunity costs can be used in concert with traditional natural resource management policies to increase the effectiveness of resource management in developing countries.
