Set in the rich natural, cultural, and political landscape of Haida Gwaii, Islands' Spirit Rising examines the long-running conflict over the islands' ancient forests and the recent game-changing events unfolding in the context of collaborative land-use planning. In response to threats posed by a century of aggressive logging, a local Indigenous-environmental-community movement evolved into a powerful force to take on the multinational forest industry and the political structures enabling it. This book traces the evolution of this dynamic force, from the early days of Haida resistance to the modern context of alliances, legal battles, and evolving forms of governance.
