Extractivisms, Existences and Extinctions

This book explores the existential redistributions that extractivist frontiers create, bringing into the English-language discussion much of the wisdom from Latin American rural and forest communities' understandings of extractivist phenomena, and the destruction and changes in lives and lived environments they create.
