This book explores the power struggles over natural resources and expounds on how resolutions are negotiated and maintained. Essays included in the volume survey the factors and the influence they have in framing and resolving environmental issues such as fracking, shared waters, and environmental threats.
The environmental studies about natural resource issues are often studied as conflicts; this book is carefully designed to expound on how resolutions are negotiated and maintained. A number of factors influence how conflicts are framed and how resolutions are determined regarding fracking, shared waters and environmental threats. This book explores the power, community activism, and politics regarding natural resources. Decisions often ignore ecological and social sustainability stewardship needs. By understanding how socio-political dynamics affect policy and negotiation, this book also contributes to the understanding of how natural resource policies are negotiated. It illuminates social inequalities between rural and urban populations.

Dian Jordan is senior lecturer at University of Texas Permian Basin. Mehmet Soyer is assistant professor of sociology at Utah State University. Sebahattin Ziyanak is assistant professor of sociology at the University of Texas Permian Basin.
