| 520 | |a "In The Conservation Constitution, Kim Smith examines how the Progressive Era conservation movement shaped constitutional doctrine. Most Progressive policies aimed at protecting natural resources would have been considered unconstitutional in the mid-nineteenth century. But by 1920, constitutional objections to the new conservation regime had been met and governmental authority to manage natural resources was written into constitutional law. Smith seeks to answer a central question - how did constitutional doctrine evolve to accommodate this expansion of government power over the environment - by exploring the evolution of constitutional doctrine supporting wildlife conservation, forest conservation, and pollution control, from the late nineteenth century through the 1920s. She highlights a string of important Supreme Court decisions usually overlooked in histories of this period, including Geer v. Connecticut, Light v. United States, United States v. Grimaud, Missouri v. Holland, Hunt v. United States, Missouri v. Illinois, and Georgia v. Tennessee Copper Co"--Provided by publisher. | ||
| 520 | |a "Over the course of the twentieth century, the United States emerged as a global leader in conservation policy--negotiating the first international conservation treaties, pioneering the idea of the national park, and leading the world in creating a modern environmental regulatory regime. And yet, this is a country famously committed to the ideals of limited government, decentralization, and strong protection of property rights. How these contradictory values have been reconciled, not always successfully, is what Kimberly K. Smith sets out to explain in The Conservation Constitution--a book that brings to light the roots of contemporary constitutional conflict over environmental policy.In the mid-nineteenth century, most Progressive Era conservation policies would have been considered unconstitutional. Smith traces how, between 1870 and 1930, the conservation movement reshaped constitutional doctrine to its purpose--how, specifically, courts and lawyers worked to expand government authority to manage wildlife, forest and water resources, and pollution. Her work, which highlights a number of important Supreme Court decisions often overlooked in accounts of this period, brings the history of environmental management more fully into the story of the US Constitution. At the same time, illuminating the doctrinal innovation in the Progressives' efforts, her book reveals the significance of constitutional history to an understanding of the government's role in environmental management"--Provided by publisher. | ||
