This ethnography of coastal protection by lab member Friederike Gesing follows the increasingly popular approach of &#8222;soft&#8220; protection to the Aotearoa New Zealand coast. Friederike Gesing analyses a political controversy over hard and soft protection measures, and introduces a growing community of practice involved in projects of working with nature. Dune restoration volunteers, coastal management experts, surfer-scientists, and Maori conservationists are engaged in projects ranging from do-it-yourself erosion control, to the reconstruction of native nature, and soft engineering &#8222;in concert with natural processes&#8220;. With soft protection, Friederike argues, we can witness a new sociotechnical imaginary in the making.<\/p>\n<p>The book (E-Book or softcover) can be ordered from the publisher <a href=\"http:\/\/www.transcript-verlag.de\/978-3-8376-3446-4\/working-with-nature-in-aotearoa-new-zealand\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.
