Look what I stumbled upon in Aye-aye books 👀 now that's going to be a very interesting Autumn read. A lovely example of ethnographic mediation 💚

Cover of a book: Land for what? Land for whom? Senses of Place and Conflict in the Scottish Highlands by Bonnie Vandesteeg. The cover displays 8 brown and blue toned graphics, depicting a hillwalker, an eagle, a pheasant hunter, a skiier, a tractor, a fisherman, a deer and a hotel.
Book blurb, with quotes from 4 different people - a hill-walker, a ski shop employee, Cairngorm Partnership Recreation Forum member and a local conservationist, displaying their conflicting views and apparent antagonism. Blurb reads: 'exploring the many and varied conflicts between livelihood, recreation and conservation, Land for What? Land for Whom? Is based on years of detailed ethnographic research in the Cairngorms of Scotland. In expressing the views, concerns and feelings of people in the area, particularly those who often go unheard, VandeSteeg places them at the front of her study and considers how their differences might be overcome to ensure future wellbeing of both people and planet.
