{"product_id":"developments-displacements-peter-vandergeest-9780774812054","title":"Development's Displacements: Economies, Ecologies, and Cultures at Risk","description":"As multilateral agencies, social movements, and state authorities worldwide struggle to cope with the effects of large-scale development projects, the problem of displacement remains unresolved. This volume seeks to address displacement as a broad and multilayered phenomenon. A series of illustrative case studies drawn from around the globe provide causal accounts of why and how displacement occurs, what its effects on communities, ecosystems, and economies look like, and the normative or ethical positions held by key actors involved. Contributors offer economic, political, and cultural analyses, as well as extensive ethnographic field research, to present a picture of displacement that illustrates the depth and the breadth of the issue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Vandergeest\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0774812052\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780774812054\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of British Columbia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.18h x 6.11w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2007 pg. 117","brand":"Peter Vandergeest","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086848897279,"sku":"9780774812054","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_378620c7-b01d-400e-bd16-f31038d52b9e.jpg?v=1769096939","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/developments-displacements-peter-vandergeest-9780774812054","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
