In \u003cem\u003eWildlife, Conservation, and Conflict in Quebec,\u003c\/em\u003e Darcy Ingram explores the combination of NGOs, fish and game clubs, and state-administered leases that formed the basis of a unique system of wildlife conservation in North America. However, these early strategies were not as forward-focused as they appear. Ingram traces the emergence of a lease-based regulatory system that blended elite forms of sport and conservation. Applied first to British North America's prized salmon rivers, this system came to encompass the bulk of Quebec's hunting and fishing territories. Inspired by a longstanding belief in progress, improvement, and social order based on European as well as North American models, this system effectively privatized Quebec's fish and game resources, often to the detriment of commercial and subsistence hunters and fishers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForeword: What You See Depends upon Where (and How) You Look \/ \u003cem\u003eGraeme Wynn\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart 1: Beginnings, 1840-80\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 The New Regulatory Environment\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2 Salmon, Sport, and the Lower St. Lawrence\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 Conflict\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart 2: Expansion, Consolidation, and Continuity, 1880-1914\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 From Public Space to Private Power\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5 The Evolution of Patrician Culture\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6 Opposition, Resistance, and the New Century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendices\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNotes; Bibliography; Index\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"UBC Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52670764679448,"sku":"9780774821414","price":28.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/wildlife-conservation-and-conflict-in-quebec-1840-1914-paperback-softback-9780774821414","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
