  • From Greenspace to Greenbelt: the Role of Civil Society in Landscape Protection in the Toronto Region
    From Greenspace to Greenbelt: The Role of Civil Society in Landscape Protection in the Toronto Region By Wendy Burton A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Geography University of Toronto © Copyright by Wendy Burton 2016 From Greenspace to Greenbelt: The Role of Civil Society in Landscape Protection in the Toronto Region Wendy Burton Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Geography University of Toronto 2016 Abstract Greenspace has been increasingly identified as an important element of environmental, social and economic health, yet proponents of greenspace protection from within civil society often find themselves with limited resources in political battles with powerful pro- growth coalitions. This was the case with the three citizen-led campaigns that managed to protect progressively larger landscapes in the Toronto region, culminating with the creation of a 1.8-million-acre greenbelt. How did they do this? This study uses qualitative methods and draws on institutionalism, participation theory, and social capital approaches to examine the evolution of environmental civil society groups and how they learned to exploit governance processes to persuade state actors to break with the status quo. The study looks at how cultural understandings, historical legacies, legal institutions, planning rules and public preferences shaped the landscape of the Toronto region. The research finds that citizen environmentalists were able to use their social capital resources
