Using case studies exercises, Tracylee Clarke and Tarla Rai Peterson introduce students to the research and practice of environmental conflict and provide a step-by-step process for engaging stakeholders and interested parties in the management of environmental disputes. The text provides not only an introduction to environmental conflict management and policy development, but also lays out practical steps for understanding and managing conflict and reviews the most relevant laws and policies. Within that context, the text then provides techniques for public involvement and community outreach, strategies for negotiating options and methodologies for communicating concerns and working through differences. The theoretical framework is grounded in the direct application of concepts to case studies through exercises, worksheets and role-plays that help students make the link between theory and practice.
