EDARC is a group of environmental scientists at the University of Wisconsin - Madison devoted to research and policy on global environmental change, conservation, sustainability, and agricultural development. This paper was first presented to the EDARC-sponsored Symposium on Globalization and the New Geographies of Conservation held at UW - Madison on April 19, 2002. Karl Zimmerer especially thanks Thomas Vale for sharing his insights and data on the change of protected areas in the United States.
