Résumé (en anglais)

This paper explores the conservation and management of heritage resources on a landscape scale, the role of government agencies in relationship to local communities, and the outcomes on community revitalization as illustrated by a specific case study. Landscape models founded on civic engagement and governmental investments in cultural assets, and land conservation are an emerging policy direction in the United States. One of the most ambitious of these projects is the Pennsylvania Wilds. Evaluations of the project demonstrate that investments in parks and forest infrastructure, tourism promotion and local communities produced positive economic impacts primarily through increased visitation. However, the research highlights the challenges of developing a common approach between public land managers, economic development programs, and community residents including the definition of regional heritage. Today this strategy for landscape management in the PA Wilds is being severely tested by a new extractive industry, drilling for natural gas. There are opportunities to learn from European landscape scale schemes.
