Ad hoc and voluntary groups of environmentalists, developers, businesspeople, federal and state resource managers, farmers, loggers, local citizens, and those representing recreation interests use deliberation and consensus to enhance public policy performance. Instead of focusing on specific issues such as air pollution, GREM emphasizes the integrated management of entire watersheds and ecosystems. But what happens to democratic accountability in these collaborative efforts? Despite concerns that they might result in special interest government, the acceleration of environmental degradation, and an end-run around national environmental protection laws, this book suggests otherwise.Bringing Society Back In establishes a theoretical framework for exploring issues of policy performance and democratic accountability raised by GREM. Through three case studies--the Applegate Partnership in Oregon, the Henry's Fork Watershed Council in Idaho, and the Willapa Alliance in Washington state--it explores the mechanisms used to determine how accountability works. The book finds that by combining traditional and formal governance structures with informal institutions, GREM can be accountable to individuals, communities, surrounding regions, and the nation. The book also identifies conditions under which GREM is most likely to achieve democratic accountability. In addition, it investigates the connection between accountability and policy performance. The evidence suggests that GREM can produce environmental policy outcomes that are supportive not only of the environment and economy, but also of environmental sustainability. 001386044 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386044 650_0 $$aEnvironmental policy$$xCitizen participation. 001386044 650_0 $$aEnvironmental policy$$zNorthwest, Pacific$$xCitizen participation$$vCase studies. 001386044 650_0 $$aEnvironmental protection$$xCitizen participation. 001386044 650_0 $$aEnvironmental protection$$zNorthwest, Pacific$$xCitizen participation$$vCase studies. 001386044 653__ $$aENVIRONMENT/Environmental Politics & Policy 001386044 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386044 852__ $$bebk 001386044 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/1672.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386044 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386044 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386044$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386044 980__ $$aBIB 001386044 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386044 982__ $$aEbook 001386044 983__ $$aOnline
