Social impact analysis of a forest management program / Eric Hundert.: En107-3/78-1987E-PDF

"The incorporation of social analysis in renewable resource management follows from a recognition of the interdependent relationship between human social systems and the natural environment. The relevance of this relationship to resource management is demonstrated historically and by the present use and role of Cape Breton’s forests. In particular, the role of the small woodlot owner and some of the social variables invoked in the management of the small woodlot sector are described. The methodology and results of a socio-economic impact assessment of a federal/provincial program to increase the productivity of Cape Breton’s small woodlots are presented as a case study. The conclusion, on the basis of this evaluation, is that social analysis, whether undertaken as part of program design or evaluation, or within the context of an environmental impact assessment, can contribute to more effective resource management"--Abstract.
