Marília de Nardin Budó

Colonial and Patriarchal Dimensions of State-Corporate Harm (eBook, ePUB)

Embodying the Powerful in the Global Asbestos Crisis

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This powerful book examines the global asbestos industry's devastating impact on health, communities, and ecosystems, exposing how corporations and governments collaborate to silence victims while prioritizing profits. Drawing on research from Brazil and Italy, it reveals how race, gender and social privilege determine which harms are recognized and which are tolerated.

Grounded in Black feminist and decolonial thought, the book uses the asbestos industry as a lens to expose colonial male-dictions-narratives that shield powerful actors from accountability. Beyond a story of victims versus corporations, it offers a radical reimagining of state-corporate harm through memory and transformative justice.
