Forest Service  

Definición

  • The emergence of the U.S. Forest Service in the fragmented milieu of conservation within a growth-oriented capitalist sociocultural system is a seminal moment for green culture. As a dynamic cultural artifact, the service—founded as the Division of Forestry in 1891 in the U.S. Department of Agriculture and established as the Forest Service in 1905—represents evolving contradictions not only in the public–private sphere of national life but also in broader meanings of conservation and green thought.
