In the last two decades watershed restoration has dramatically increased in popularity and practice across the nation. California has led the way with billions of dollars being allocated to restoration activities through legislation and voter-approved bonds. Yet, the social and environmental implications of restoration remain ambiguous since there has been little examination of restoration accomplishments and almost no analysis of the social context of restoration. This dissertation addresses these gaps by providing a political ecology of watershed restoration in the Russian River watershed, Northern California. I explore the political, economic, and cultural context of watershed restoration, addressing several sub-questions: (1) How has the watershed been represented and produced? (2) What are the landscape-scale trends and site-specific characteristics of watershed restoration activities? (3) What are prevalent narratives associated with watershed restoration? and (4) What is missing from the dominant discourse of watershed restoration?Subjects--Topical Terms:

This research contends that the dominant theory and practice of watershed restoration offer an apolitical approach that treats the physical symptoms of degradation rather than the socially-rooted causes of watershed degradation. This dissertation reveals that the dominant discourse of restoration is defined by the tendency to impose Western scientific categories and norms; the site-specific application of primarily riparian, instream, and road-related improvements; treatments that overlap with required regulatory mandates; and an emphasis on productive landscapes. The dissertation investigates what is excluded from this dominant discourse of restoration by examining the changing political economy of the region, identifying trends in restoration across 787 restoration projects, analyzing a diverse set of restoration narratives, and exploring water allocation processes at local, regional, and state scales. This research suggests that dominant forms of watershed restoration do not function as an antidote to degradation, as commonly understood. We will not be able to restore streams and recover species until we are willing to address the sources of watershed degradation, which include the political economy and the legal and regulatory framework of water allocation. Until we go beyond the stream to see the entire watershed as a combination of social and natural forces interacting, restoration will continue to facilitate the dominant relations of production.
