Description

How must natural resource sectors change to achieve sustainable
development in British Columbia? What reforms can be made to
'institutions' in order to assist these changes? What new
policy instruments can be introduced? What institutions and instruments
are no longer useful? These questions are the topic of hot debate in
British Columbia and elsewhere. Managing Natural Resources in
British Columbia grapples with these questions and suggests some
preliminary answers.
