The 1964 Wilderness Act was a landmark legislation created under unique circumstances, but its legacy no longer pertains solely to the culture it was created in. This paper seeks to address the present impacts of the themes and emotionality of language used in the Wilderness Act, specifically the term "untrammeled," on modern Wilderness recreation policies and individual opinions. To fully understand the impacts of describing wilderness as an area that is "untrammeled," this research is split into two parts. In the first part, I review and analyze outstanding literature regarding the variables that led to the creation of and specific language used in the Wilderness Act. In the second part of the project, I analyze current Wilderness recreation policies, including qualitative data analysis through a series of interviews with Montana Wilderness stakeholders, to explore how the concept of "untrammeled" continues to affect Wilderness recreation policy formation and individuals' opinions. This research aims at connecting the prevailing ideologies of the political actors who influenced the creation of the Wilderness Act to current Wilderness recreation management, ultimately helping facilitate future Wilderness recreation policies that are inclusive, equitable, and maintain the essence of the 1964 Wilderness Act.

Frederick van Zyl Slabbert erklärt seinen überraschenden Rücktritt als Oppositionsführer der 'Progressive Federal Party' mit politischen Rückschlägen: Weder konnte die Regierung von ihrem harten Apartheid-Kurs abgebracht, noch konnte eine Koalition seiner Partei mit anderen Anti-Apartheidgruppen zustande gebracht werden.

The topic of the paper is wilderness and the idea of wilderness. The introduction presents an outline of the concept of wilderness in the American West, with particular attention to the role of the government in defining wilderness. The relationship of John Muir with the Roosevelt administration is described in reference to the city of San Francisco and its successful requisitioning of the Hetch Hetchy watershed. The argument is made that although an ideal of wilderness devoid of human contact has been promoted by preservationists, the role of humans play in the realm of wilderness cannot be discounted. Attempts to segregate wilderness and human activity, although intended to protect diversity of life, have in fact been part of a project which essentially and ultimately has led to environmental degradation and diminishing diversity. Traditional concepts of wilderness must be modified, incorporating more human participation, if the trends toward increasing degradation and diminishing diversity is to be slowed. Monumental projects reintroducing modern society to the biosphere must be launched in order to move beyond wilderness.

Abstract:Over the last two decades wilderness conservation has resurfaced to become one of the most contentious issues currently on the public agenda. The "politics" of wilderness preservation has been extensively reported in the media, but academic analysis has been on a superficial level and usually by the supporters of "conservation". This analysis has not proved particularly helpful for policy practitioners in this field.
