Plundered Promise: Capitalism, Politics, and the Fate of the Federal Lands

Richard W. Behan


  Plundered Promise: Capitalism, Politics, and the Fate of the Federal Lands  Richard W. Behan  What has been done to our public lands? Irreplaceable forests harvested for lumber. Vast expanses of rangeland leased at rates far below market value. Mineral resources extracted with little or no royalties paid. These and other actions have brought unparalleled benefit to private interests-and massive costs to society at large. They are but the most visible signs of the fundamental flaws in the current system of federal lands management. In Plundered Promise, leading resource management scholar Richard W. Behan presents an engrossing history and analysis of public lands management in the United States, as he describes how we arrived at the current situation and examines what we can do to rectify it. Behan begins by outlining his provocative thesis that American political and economic institutions have overshot their historic roles, and, rather than responding to public needs, have drawn society into their service. He then offers a detailed analysis of the development of the...  книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин What has been done to our public lands? Irreplaceable forests harvested for lumber.

G.R. Searle, G. R. Searle

Russ Smith


  Federal Applications That Get Results: From SF 171s to Federal-Style Resumes  Russ Smith  Impact Publications.   No doubt about it. The key to getting a federal job is how well applicants write a job-winning application. But times have changed and so have applications federal agencies will accept for employment. As the federal government continues to decentralize hiring to the Agency level, it also has adapted hiring methods similar to those used in the private sector. While only a few months ago most agencies required applicants to complete the Standard Form 171 (SF171), today agencies accept two other application forms-OF 612 and federal-style resumes. If you want to get a federal job, you must understand how to put these unique applications together with maximum impact. Here's the perfect guide to understanding the federal hiring process as well as the key application forms now accepted by various federal agencies. Six chapters and eleven appendices outline: What federal employers look for on the SF 171, OF 612, and federal-style resumes. Major writing...  книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Impact Publications. No doubt about it. The key to getting a federal job is how well applicants write a job-winning application.
