Description
Wolf Conflicts: A Sociological Study by Ketil Skogen, Olve Krange, and Helene Figari explores the complex relationships between wolf populations and rural communities in Northern Europe and North America. As these large carnivores make a comeback, they often become embroiled in broader societal tensions, particularly those affecting rural areas and the working class. The book examines various aspects of this dynamic, including conflicts over land use and conservation, as well as patterns of power and resistance within modern societies. Through research and case studies conducted in Norway, Wolf Conflicts sheds light on the intricate connections between human and animal worlds. By investigating these complex interactions, Skogen, Krange, and Figari provide a nuanced understanding of the ways in which wolf populations can both disrupt and reflect broader social changes.
