Reviews
Economists address environmental impacts of transnational corporations, focusing on the global South under neoliberal globalization. They begin with extractive industries, social conflict, and dispossession in the global South. Among those topics are mining giants, indigenous people, and art: challenging settler colonialism in northern Australia through story painting; and ecological-economic narratives for resisting extractive industries in Africa. Turning then to environmental conflicts and transnational value chains in the global South, they consider such topics as environmental injustice in northeast Brazil: the Pecém industrial and shipping complex; and family farming, the environment, and the global food chain.

Synopsis
This volume explores the impact of Transnational Corporations (TNCs) on the environment of the Global South during this period of neoliberal globalization. It develops themes around transnational extractive activity; the impact of transnational capital on indigenous populations, and the role played by international institutions,, This volume explores the impact of Transnational Corporations (TNCs) on the environment of the Global South during this period of neoliberal globalization. Since the end of the 1970s, the role of TNCs in the global economy has developed significantly, and the subsequent changes to international institutions and the establishment of free trade zones have limited the effectiveness of environmental protections. Drawing together contributions from several continents, this important book examines the environmental consequences and crises resulting from these changes. It highlights the negative impact on the environment, ecosystems and ways of living for many people across the globe and shows how this is reflected in the struggle between corporate interests, social movements and human rights. Developing key themes around transnational extractive activity, especially mining and oil corporations; the impact of transnational capital on indigenous or traditional populations, and the role played by international institutions, Environmental Impacts of Transnational Corporations in the Global South is essential reading for all researchers and practitioners within the field.
