Recensioner i media

“Readers from social and cultural anthropology, indigenous studies and other related disciplines interested in the topic of climate change will find Lyn Carter’s study an interesting read. … The combination of institutional analysis and information from case studies provides interesting insights to both scholars, indigenous people, and policymakers in New Zealand, Oceania, and beyond.” (Lena Borlinghaus, Anthropological Notebooks, Vol. 25 (1), 2019)
