Review Quotes:
"The insights discovered in this book are bold and we are obligated to listen; they give voice to so many stories that have lacked a voice until now. Van Assche and Iordachi have brought together an extraordinary team of researchers who elevate our knowledge and understanding of this special place, the Danube Delta, and the many issues surrounding it. Now, we need to translate these insights into current and future planning. This volume offers us an enormous opportunity to make that happen." --Kyle Whitfield, University of Alberta
"The Bio-Politics of the Danube Delta offers an intricate, thoroughly composed, and timely insight into the physical, historical, cultural-political and policy/planning landscapes of the delta. In doing so, the volume contributes interdisciplinary perspectives on socio-political and ecological transformation processes to ongoing debates on 'sustainable development' of the region. A must read for all scholars working on transformation and change processes in post-Soviet settings." --Anna-Katharina Hornidge, University of Bonn, Germany
