Labor of Extraction in Latin America

Beschreibung

Natural resource extraction and primary commodity export remain persistent features of the Latin American economy. This book investigates the power of labor in extractive sectors starting in the 1980s. It shows how labor shapes national export sectors, economies, politics, and societies more broadly, and resists extractivism through organizing.
