Abstract

Using historical and contemporary perspectives from Nova Scotia, this paper makes the case that forest recreation, particularly residual supply in the working forest landscape, is best understood in the context of conservation practices and recreation home development. By examining Nova Scotia's land tenure system, forest practices, and forest recreation demand and other resource management concerns, inferences are drawn regarding the critical nature of residual forest recreation provision and the need for government intervention. Overall, this paper provides a generalized conceptual framework useful for analysing residual forest recreation provision in other jurisdictions. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
