{"product_id":"9781581120981","title":"The Early Conservation Movement In Argentina And The National Park Service","description":"This study explores the emergence and development of the conservation   movement in Argentina during the twentieth century.\u003cp\u003e    I argue that the development of the conservation movement has been linked to shifts in the broader spectrum of Argentina's  political arena as well as the international political situation as nations competed for the sovereignty of newly acquired  territories after the Indian Wars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    This book explores the development of Argentina as a nation in relation to conservation of its natural resources as a counter  measure to resource extraction. Thus, I establish the relationship between the need for national sovereignty and  socio-economic development via the formulation of nature based tourism industry. This strategy was developed by Excequiel  Bustillo and spearheaded by the formation of National Park System.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    The environmental movement in Argentina has been based on the principles of utilitarianism, and the National Park System of  Argentina was instrumental in establishing hegemonic national identity and sovereignty in Patagonia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e    The National Park System institutionalized and for many years was the leading force behind conservation of Argentina's  natural resources, and it fostered social and economic development of remote areas through nature based tourism practices.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal-Publishers.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47040804487408,"sku":"9781581120981","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781581120981_p0.jpg?v=1763793460","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781581120981","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
