In the end… Bibliography IndexReviews""This book is an extraordinary testimony to relations between the River Una and the Biscani in northern Bosnia and Herzegovina who live alongside her. It flows seamlessly from socialist childhood, through the river as a source of joy and escape during a deadly war, to collective action that defeated plans to build a damn and new threats emerging from the river's rebranding as a site of ecotourism. Riverine Citizenship is a meditation on multispecies love, never shying away from the painful, the destructive, and the violent, as rigorous and innovative as it is moving and poetic. It is a passionate plea for an expanded ethics of care and an inclusive ecological citizenship."" --Paul Stubbs ""From the depths and flows of its emerald waters, Azra Hromadzic has channeled the ethnographic sensorium of the 'one and only' Una into an insightful, poetic treatise on riverine love--love as affect, ethics, and politics. If we listen with her, we hear how joy can emerge in war and greed can color devotion. Above all, she offers us an anthropology of hope born from the entwined lives of a river and its people."" --Sarah Wagner ""This book is an extraordinary testimony to relations between the River Una and the Biscani in northern Bosnia and Herzegovina who live alongside her.
