Stratton Roundtable. Looking Back, Looking Forward: Lessons from the 1969 Commission on Marine Science, Engineering and Resources. Proceedings Held in Washington, D.C. on May 1, 1998.

摘要

Believing that a review of events leading up to the first ocean commission, its work and its accomplishments would inform and enrich the present debate, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, in partnership with the University of Delaware and the Ocean Governance Study Group, organized a roundtable bringing together the principals involved in the first commission and today's leaders, who are developing the proposal for a new national commission. On May 1 1998, 36 leaders from federal and state governments, industry, environmental organizations and academia met to (1) discuss lessons learned from the process of organizing and implementing the first ocean commission; (2) discuss the 1998 proposals and policy context and how they differ from those of the 1960s; and (3) make recommendations concerning the scope and implementation of a new ocean commission.
