Dealing with non-native species: what makes the difference in South America? (2012, background): “Thus, the development of learning programs, within the formal education system as well as in the informal one, linking the introduction of species to human activities could help raise awareness about our responsibility in this process (Larson 2005).”
An alien approach to invasive species: objectivity and society in invasion biology (2007, background): “I agree with Brown and Sax that invasive species have often been unduly maligned (Larson 2005), so I am not arguing for excessive advocacy or valuation within invasion biology.”

Biological invasions and biocultural diversity: linking ecological and cultural systems (2008, background): “…have noted the linguistic parallels with the terminology used by USA immigrant control officers, whereby the language in invasive species control communiqués appears militaristic, racist, classist and xenophobic (Gould 1998; Simberloff 2003; Sagoff 2005; Helmreich 2005; Larson 2005; O’Brien 2006).”
