- 요약This dissertation develops interdisciplinary methods to illuminate the challenges at the intersection of fire ecology and decision in complex adaptive systems. Contemporary dialogues at the intersection of fire, energy and land use require novel understanding of these interactions to better address complex systems interacting across global and local ecological economic dimensions. The author builds from history and direct experience across institutions to develop an economic geographic analysis in theoretical and practical frames to advance the ecological choices and decisions that affect global climate change and adaptive governance in the face of fire, or rather "internalizing fire." The practice of internalizing fire engages the transformation of external fire over the landscape through acts of suppression, displacement and exclusion and the rise of an internal fire through industrial and transport processes. As fire moves across the landscape, geographic information informs when fire is in effect present and absent. The term "internalized fire" is also used to investigate decision spaces, how institutions and individual actors may respond to internalizing these values in future stewardship and adaptive governance. The first chapter investigates an economic geography and historiography of "Bracero Burning" with primary archived data to examine the early motivation and administration of the Bracero program and the effect of this mid-twentieth century migrant labor policy on the rise of catastrophic fire, changing fire ecology across North American landscapes. The second chapter examines interactions between institutions, people and mobility across landscapes through a "Politics of Practice".This adaptive capacity framework estimates costs and the scale of "labor over land," in systems living with fire. These models provide theory and application for localized decision. Chapter three explores this economic geography in theory and practice with the restoration of Arctostaphylos Pungens, the "Mexican" Manzanita, a fire dependent species ranging across the study area, inhabited by participants and descendants of World War II era Braceros. A discussion of the plant's significance provides socioeconomic perspective on costs and questions of internalizing fire across its habitat. The "Politics of Practice" offers concluding theory for a better balance in California's fire ecology and adaptive decision, amid local and global dilemmas with proposed increase in frequency of localized and regional decision.
