Abstract

Adirondack Park, New York State, Common Pool Resource (CPR) theory, public land management, private land rights, social ecological system, natural resource governance, historical ecology, participatory governance, energy, economy, recreation, transportation, wildlife, water supply, land acquisition, environmental protection / conservation, policy

historical value, diversity, ecosystems, temporal properties, boreal forests, terrestrial ecosystems, forests, watersheds, spatial properties, invasive species

I assembled this dataset from various published sources to evaluate how the social-ecological system (SES) in Adirondack Park, New York changed through time and the interplay of public goods (Common Pool Resources, CPRs), public land rules and private land rights, and related concepts over 260 years (1760-2020). The database was the basis for a doctoral dissertation titled "Blue Lining: Assessing the Resilience of Adirondack Park, New York Using Polycentricity and Panarchy Frameworks." The goal of the dissertation was to assess patterns and changes in institutional rules, actors and arrangements before and after establishment of the public Adirondack Forest Preserve in 1885 and Adirondack Park in 1892 as those actors and rules were modified and as both internal and external events influenced the SES as it moved through different phases of the adaptive cycle through space and time (see panarchy). Using the database, I identified which organizations and events contributed to natural resource and CPR policy.
