Produktbeschreibung
To our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive analysis of conflicts over large carnivores that see these controversies primarily as social conflicts embedded in deeper tensions in contemporary societies, and not so much as conflicts between animals and people. The book points out that wolf conflicts are primarily conflicts between people, over wolves. As Michael Woods writes on the book’s webpage: Wolf Conflicts is not a book about wolves per se, but rather an exploration of what human interactions with wolves can tell us about contemporary rural societies. Wolf Conflicts points to the intersection of social class and rurality as a key to understanding many conflicts over land use and conservation. The book has a strong empirical basis, in the form of interviews conducted over many years.
