The designation and management of federal wilderness areas has generated much controversy in the United States. The decade
of the 1980s has been a difficult one for public land managers as there has been growing opposition to their traditional “conserve
but use philosophy.” Public lands are to be managed for the public benefit. Unfortunately there has been little survey research
to find out what the attitudes of the public are towards the management of federally designated wilderness. We report the
results of a national survey of 2670 residents of wilderness counties. We found that the presence of wilderness is an important
reason why 53% of the people moved to or live in the area; 81% felt that wilderness areas are important to their counties;
and 65% were against mineral or energy development in wilderness areas. On some issues there was less agreement as 43% of
the respondents wanted more access to wilderness, and 39% were in favor of additional wilderness with 26% undecided. There
were no large differences between counties and regions despite the differences in economic and social characteristics and
the historical contexts within which they evolved. 相似文献
