Environmental Politics and Policy in Aotearoa New Zealand

Abstract

With an ensemble of experts, Maria Bargh and Julie L. MacArthur have done a timely service to the communities of academic research, teaching-and-learning, and public policymaking by editing the book Environmental Politics and Policy in Aotearoa New Zealand. It is timely as we witness another year of record-breaking dramatic weather and climate-related disasters worldwide. More than ever, all sectors of society at large are compelled to learn more about the environment we live in, the histories of the lands, waters, and forests around us, interconnections across complex geological, ecological, and socio-economical systems, and, ultimately, the relationship between individuals and the future of Aotearoa and beyond.
