About this ebook
Tundra Waves Hunt explores the complex intersection of history, politics, and indigenous rights through the lens of Chukchi whaling in the Russian Arctic. It examines how this centuries-old tradition navigates modern legal frameworks and conservation efforts. The book highlights the crucial role of whaling in Chukchi cultural identity and subsistence, while also analyzing the evolution of regulations from the Soviet era to the present day.
A key insight is the ongoing political negotiations between indigenous communities, Russian authorities, and international organizations like the IWC, concerning sustainable resource management. The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, integrating anthropology, law, and environmental science to provide a holistic understanding.
It moves chronologically, starting with the cultural and historical context, then examining Soviet-era regulations, and finally focusing on post-Soviet legislative changes and international influences. The book argues for a balanced approach that respects both indigenous rights and conservation goals, emphasizing the need to incorporate traditional ecological knowledge alongside scientific data.
