When conservationists talk about the establishment of public lands in the United States, they sometimes focus on governmental decisions to protect land for future generations. However, the protection of lands as public did not occur in a vacuum. The conservation of these places reflects the larger social, cultural, and political forces and events of United States history. These influences are as diverse as the lands themselves. With this module, we try to provide a more comprehensive history of public lands. In doing so, we try to include the stories of some of the people and communities that have been History is conveyed in different ways by different cultures.

  • An Indivisible and Living Whole: Do We Value Nature Enough to Grant It Personhood?
    03_ATHENS_EDITEDPROOF (DO NOT DELETE) 11/8/2018 2:32 PM An Indivisible and Living Whole: Do We Value Nature Enough to Grant It Personhood? Allison Katherine Athens In 1972, in his dissent to the majority’s decision in Sierra Club v. Morton, Justice Blackmun posed a question: “Must our law be so rigid and our procedural concepts so inflexible that we render ourselves helpless when the existing methods and the traditional concepts do not quite fit and do not prove to be entirely adequate for new issues?” Forty years later, Aotearoa New Zealand’s parliament answered in the negative. Responding to the New Zealand Crown government’s historic failure to meet their treaty responsibilities with Māori iwi (tribes) and current fears of environmental degradation, the New Zealand Crown government found flexibility in their legal system to accommodate Māori views of nature as a living entity that cannot be owned and used as property. By transforming a former national park and an economically important river from property to legal persons under the guardianship of the interested Māori tribe, the New Zealand Crown government eschewed rigidity in order to meet their treaty obligations while also safeguarding the best interest of each natural feature as an ecological system. In the following Note, I borrow from feminist theory and environmental philosophy to examine how the categories of nature and personhood function within a cultural context to support the status quo of nature as property. I conduct a detailed examination of the case of Lavinia Goodell, a woman denied admittance to the bar in 1875, in order to show how cultural attitudes determine categorical boundaries, indicating that nature can gain legal personhood based on changing cultural norms.

  • Ethnographic Data and Tribal Engagement at Yosemite National Park
    land Article Reframing Native Knowledge, Co-Managing Native Landscapes: Ethnographic Data and Tribal Engagement at Yosemite National Park Rochelle Bloom and Douglas Deur * Department of Anthropology, Portland State University, Portland, OR 97207, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 25 August 2020; Accepted: 18 September 2020; Published: 22 September 2020 Abstract: Several Native American communities assert traditional ties to Yosemite Valley, and special connections to the exceptional landmarks and natural resources of Yosemite National Park. However, tribal claims relating to this highly visible park with its many competing constituencies—such as tribal assertions of traditional ties to particular landscapes or requests for access to certain plant gathering areas—often require supporting documentation from the written record. Addressing this need, academic researchers, the National Park Service and park-associated tribes collaborated in a multi-year effort to assemble a comprehensive ethnographic database containing most available written accounts of Native American land and resource use in Yosemite National Park. To date, the database includes over 13,000 searchable and georeferenced entries from historical accounts, archived ethnographic notebooks, tribal oral history transcripts and more. The Yosemite National Park Ethnographic Database represents a progressive tool for identifying culturally significant places and resources in Yosemite—a tool already being used by both cultural and natural resource managers within the National Park Service as well as tribal communities considering opportunities for future collaborative management of their traditional homelands within Yosemite National Park. We conclude that the organization of such data, including inherent ambiguities and contradictions, periodically updated with data provided by contemporary Tribal members, offers a rich, multivocal and dynamic representation of cultural traditions linked to specific park lands and resources.
