520 |a Colliding environmental and development interests have shaped national policy reforms supporting both oil development and environmental protection in Alaska. This book examines three significant national policy reform efforts that came out of these conflicts: the development of the Trans-Alaska pipeline, the establishment of a vast system of protected natural areas through the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act, and the reform of the environmental management of the marine oil trade in Alaska to reduce the risk of oil pollution after the Exxon Valdez disaster. Illuminating the delicate balance and give-and-take between environmental and commercial interests, as well as larger issues shaping policy reforms, the author applies a theoretical framework to examine the processes and consequences of these reforms at the state, national, and international levels.
