"Stresses links of demographic and environmental strains to larger issues of land tenure institutions and economic policies. The Costa Rican government's grants of provisional rights to squatters has led to more degradation/migration in Costa Rica and fueled the expansion of cattle ranching. Economic crisis merely added to other socioeconomic factors leading to a net migration from deforested into forested areas. Standard policy recommendations"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
