Identifies the changing role of the federal government in its natural resource policies, looking at rivalries between different agencies. Analyzes environmental opposition from a political perspective to explain how it fits into a larger political process, examining tactics used by business and grassroots groups in the environmental opposition and groups' linkages to philosophical and ideological agendas such as the modern conservative and libertarian movements.
