National parks are one of the most important and successful
institutions in global environmentalism. Since their first designation
in the United States in the 1860s and 1870s they have become a global
phenomenon. The development of these ecological and political systems
cannot be understood as a simple reaction to mounting environmental
problems, nor can it be explained by the spread of environmental
sensibilities. Shifting the focus from the usual emphasis on national
parks in the United States, this volume adopts an historical and
transnational perspective on the global geography of protected areas and
its changes over time. It focuses especially on the actors, networks,
mechanisms, arenas, and institutions responsible for the global spread
of the national park and the associated utilization and mobilization of
asymmetrical relationships of power and knowledge, contributing to
scholarly discussions of globalization and the emergence of global
environmental institutions and governance.
