Recenzje

The Roots of Engagement tackles seminal questions in the field of resource conflict. Offering a fresh take on the debate about who participates and why, the authors shift the unit of analysis to the individual level, where decisions about participation can be analyzed more precisely. This book should be read by everyone who wants to make sense of extractive sector struggles.
