| Summary: | In chapter 13, “Being Objective: How Mr Nowhere Threatens the Success of Co-management,” Jennifer Jill Fellows considers the peculiar problems that arise when managing the environment with diverse stakeholders. Fellows’s focus is the current co-management projects in the Canadian Arctic, where Indigenous knowledge is frequently questioned or dismissed as unscientific or lacking objectivity. Fellows argues that this treatment of Indigenous knowledge undermines the trust necessary to effectively co-manage the Arctic. While we ought to reject the specific concept of objectivity understood as knowledge gathered from a “view from nowhere,” we should embrace a concept of objectivity from a particular perspective.
