«

“…a rich, multilayered study that will be of interest to sociologists, conservation biologists, and the general reader. It has relevance for thinking about rewilding conflicts well beyond the context of Norway.” • American Journal of Sociology

“This is a strong and engaging book. 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.” • Michael Woods, Aberystwyth University

Wolf Conflicts is sure to be a useful and fascinating read not only for environmental sociologists but also for conservation scientists and ecologists with an interest in the social aspects of wildlife management, or human-nature relationships in general.” • Anke Fischer, James Hutton Institute
