First sentence: Although considerable dispute resolution expertise has been devoted to environmental conflicts in the last twenty years (Bingham 1986, Carpenter and Kennedy 1988, Crowfoot and Wondolleck 1990, Gray 1989, Susskind and Cruikshank 1987, Wondolleck and Yaffee 2000) many of these conflicts remain mired in controversy, tied up in litigation, and riddled with long-standing tensions that defy resolution.
