Book Review

Canada and the United States

Tina Loo. States of Nature: Conserving Canada's Wildlife in the Twentieth Century. Vancouver: University of British Columbia Press. 2006. Pp. xi, 280. $29.95.

This book suggests that states of nature are cultural manifestations of the interplay of people's impact on the environment and their conceptualization of nature. Tina Loo makes three arguments by examining Canadian wildlife management from the turn of the twentieth century to 1970. First, wildlife management evolved from decentralized, local, and customary practices to a bureaucratized and scientifically professionalized regime centralized in federal government hands. Second, rural people nonetheless remained important, if subordinate, contributors to this regime. Third, wildlife management regimes shaped Canadians' values about their relationship with the environment.
