- Impacts, Engagements, and Alternative Futures

Bag om ExtrACTION

This timely volume examines resistance to natural resource extraction from a critical ethnographic perspective. Using a range of case studies from North, Central and South America, Australia, and Central Asia, the contributors explore how and why resistance movements seek to eliminate extraction policies from economic and political agenda, evaluating their similarities, differences, successes, and failures. A range of ongoing debates concerning environmental justice, risk and disaster, sacrifice zones, and the economic cycles of boom and bust are considered, and the roles of governments, free markets, and civil society groups re-examined.
