Crisis of the Wasteful Nation
Author: Ian Tyrrell
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022619776X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 366
Book Description
This study examines rising alarm over waste of natural resources, and its use by Theodore Roosevelt and his administration to further objectives of conservation and an American form of empire. These objectives encompassed both preservationist and utilitarian approaches, centred on efficiency, but interpreting efficiency in social and political rather than economic terms. These policies revealed an emerging idea of environmental 'habitability' that presaged modern interest in sustainability.
