The book provides a detailed analysis of the development of
adaptive governance in Russia and Finland. It presents a case study
from the Sakha Republic in Russia that focuses on community s
participation in the process of governing of the flood events in
the Tatta River area. Local adaptive practices are analyzed in
relation to federal and regional responses that may mandate,
encourage or collide with community s agency. A second case study
is centered on the Finnish community of Kuttura, Ivalo. It explores
the mounting challenges presented by changing environmental
conditions to traditional reindeer herding, as well as the efforts
made to cope with these new factors. Combining anthropological
research and political science, this penetrating work offers
revealing scrutiny of governmental responses to one of the most
urgent issues facing both politicians and the citizens who live in
their domains."
