Description: A number of trends are altering the role of science in natural resource management. These trends include the growing political power of science, the recognition that most natural resource problems are extremely complex and not prone to uni-dimensional solutions, and the increasing need to integrate an understanding of the human component into the planning and decision-making process. A sampling of the various roles of the social sciences and the types of questions amenable to social science are examined.
