DESCRIPTION:Charting a New Path along the Environmental Policy Tightrope: I
 ncluding and Rewarding Stakeholders without Giving Away the Farm\n\nProfes
 sor Kai Chan\n\nWhereas command-and-control approaches to environmental la
 w and policy are out of fashion due to their alienating effects on stakeho
 lders\, neoliberal market-based approaches can also be critiqued for gifti
 ng rights without sufficient responsibilities\, and for perverting steward
 ship norms and motivations. Is there another possibility? I argue there is
 \, a relational approach that involves actively recruiting landowner and i
 ndustry stewardship and agency\, pursuing fairness and right relationships
  with stakeholders even at the expense of small-scale efficiency. At large
 r spatial scales and over longer durations\, a relational approach may ach
 ieve both efficiency and effectiveness\, safeguarding species while transf
 orming the economy. I illustrate this through endangered species legislati
 on and associated market-based tools like mitigation banking and so-called
  incentive programs.\n\nKai Chan is a professor at the Institute for Resou
 rces\, Environment and Sustainability at the University of British Columbi
 a. Kai is an interdisciplinary\, problem-oriented sustainability scientist
 \, trained in ecology\, policy\, and ethics from Princeton and Stanford Un
 iversities. He strives to understand how social-ecological systems can be 
 transformed to be both better and wilder. Kai leads CHANS lab (Connecting

  Small-Planet Heroes). He is a UBC Killam Research Fellow\; a Leopold Lead
