Struggle on the North Santiam: Power and Community on the Margins of the American West

Research output: Book/ReportBook

Abstract

A sixty-mile forested corridor stretching from the Willamette Valley to the Cascade mountains, Oregon’s North Santiam Canyon is like many other marginalized places in the American West. Its residents have long sought to exercise their limited power in the face of real and exaggerated external forces: global economic systems, cultural power emanating from larger cities, and state and national political forces. Struggle on the North Santiam examines how these Oregonians have responded to, interacted with, and sometimes gotten the better of such external forces.
