The book delves into the complex communication surrounding whaling, highlighting its role as a symbol for both supporters and opponents. It examines how environmental issues are selected and how knowledge is disseminated by various organizations and activists. Through fieldwork in Japan and Norway, the author explores the constructed image of a "superwhale," which has overshadowed traditional whale commodities. The analysis reveals how the whaling debate serves as a platform for NGOs and authorities to forge alliances and negotiate legitimacy in a contentious landscape.
