{"product_id":"biofuels-and-the-globalization-of-james-smith-9781848135727","title":"Biofuels and the Globalization of Risk","description":"Biofuels and the Globalization of Risk offers a fresh, compelling analysis of the politics and policies behind the biofuels story, with its technological optimism and often-idealized promises for the future. This essential new critique argues that investment in biofuels may reconfigure risk and responsibility, whereby the global South is encouraged to invest its future in growing biofuel crops, often at the expense of food, in order that the global North may continue its unsustainable energy consumption unabated and guilt-free. Thus, Smith argues, biofuels may constitute the biggest change in North-South relationships since colonialism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848135726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848135727\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/11\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.30w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2011","brand":"James Smith","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445807198463,"sku":"9781848135727","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_73c57d59-1c1b-4539-b6a3-8a4702a3e6bc.jpg?v=1777220782","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/biofuels-and-the-globalization-of-james-smith-9781848135727","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
