The literature is rife with examples of agencies competing with each other or asserting their independence, while cooperation is relatively rare. This is of particular importance in policy areas such as biodiversity, where species, habitats, and ecosystems cross various agency jurisdictions.Bureaucratic Landscapes explores the reasons for the success and failure of interagency cooperation, focusing on several case studies of efforts to preserve biodiversity in California. The book examines why public officials tried to cooperate and the obstacles they faced, providing indirect evidence of policy impacts as well. Among other topics, it examines the role of courts in prompting agency action, the role of scientific knowledge in organizational learning, and the emergence of new institutions to resolve collective-action problems. Notable findings include the crucial role of environmental lawsuits in prompting agency action and the surprisingly active role of the Bureau of Land Management in resource preservation. 001386356 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386356 650_0 $$aBiodiversity conservation$$xGovernment policy$$zCalifornia$$vCase studies. 001386356 650_0 $$aBiodiversity conservation$$xGovernment policy$$zUnited States$$vCase studies. 001386356 650_0 $$aNatural resources$$zCalifornia$$xManagement$$vCase studies. 001386356 650_0 $$aNatural resources$$zUnited States$$xManagement$$vCase studies. 001386356 650_0 $$aInterorganizational relations$$zCalifornia$$vCase studies. 001386356 650_0 $$aInterorganizational relations$$zUnited States$$vCase studies. 001386356 653__ $$aENVIRONMENT/Environmental Politics & Policy 001386356 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386356 852__ $$bebk 001386356 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/1699.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386356 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386356 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386356$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386356 980__ $$aBIB 001386356 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386356 982__ $$aEbook 001386356 983__ $$aOnline
