Ellen M.
Donoghue, Social Scientist Research Interests: My work explores the social and institutional
processes and structures that affect the management of forest resources in
the United States and abroad. My
research on resource use, access, and management is primarily at the (human)
community level, though this is usually grounded in an understanding of
regional, national, and international dimensions. Education: Prior to receiving my PhD in Forestry from North Carolina State
University, I earned a M.P.P. in Public Policy from Rutgers University, and a
B.S. in Political Economy of Natural Resources from the University of
California, Berkeley. Current Research: Current studies include understanding the values
and behaviors of users of public forestlands, in particular harvesters of
non-timber forest resources, understanding the institutional dimensions of collaborative
resource management strategies, and characterizing rural communities in the
Pacific Northwest based on socioeconomic well-being and spatial relationships
to public lands and service centers. |
