If I may make a suggestion for a topic that might be good for the class,
perhaps you can explore the transfer of the islands in Boston Harbor
from local control to the State Parks and then the National Parks Service.
At the time, urban parks like the harbor islands were a new an untested
idea. Your students should not have too much trouble finding conflicts
in the park's history.
You might be able to find a ranger or other park employee who can speak
to the class, and it may be possible to schedule a field trip.
Good Luck!

Colleagues,
I am preparing a spring course on Environmental Conflict Resolution.
I hope to include aspects of the broad Envt-security agenda; themes
around resources and environment & conflict; literature and topics
around conflict resolution/mediation/transformation and
environment/sustainability/resources; and so on. In other words, I’m
open to a broad set of topics, themes and ideas! I would welcome any
and all suggestions for topics, reading materials, related courses
and syllabi, etc. And I would be happy if there were international
and US related suggestions.
Help! :)
Thanks all!
