Dispossession and the Environment: Rhetoric and Inequality in Papua New Guinea, Paperback - Paige West

Detalii:

When journalists, developers, surf tourists, and conservation NGOs cast Papua New Guineans as living in a prior nature and prior culture, they devalue their knowledge and practice, facilitating their dispossession. Paige Wests searing study reveals how a range of actors produce and reinforce inequalities in todays globalized world. She shows how racist rhetorics of representation underlie all uneven patterns of development and seeks a more robust understanding of the ideological work that capital requires for constant regeneration.About the Author:Paige West is professor of anthropology at Barnard College and Columbia University.
