{"product_id":"disasters-and-social-reproduction-peer-illner-9780745339542","title":"Disasters and Social Reproduction: Crisis Response Between the State and Community","description":"Reductions in state spending have put significant strain on communities during disasters. When hurricanes, floods and earthquakes hit, the responsibility for emergency relief is shifted from the state onto civil society. Disasters and Social Reproduction builds upon Marxist-Feminist elaborations of unwaged forms of labor, arguing that social reproduction theory is best understood as a dynamic between the state, the market and civil society. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Following the long economic crisis of the 1970s, disaster relief has become increasingly reliant on the unwaged reproductive labor of ordinary people, allowing the US state to cut back on social spending, a shift that has fundamentally reconfigured the responsibilities of the state and civil society. As sea levels rise, climate change worsens and we see an increase in disaster relief led by communities, this analysis of the interrelations between state, society and grassroots initiatives, including Occupy Sandy and the American Black Cross, will prove indispensable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peer Illner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0745339549\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745339542\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pluto Press (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/20\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.30w x 0.60d","brand":"Peer Illner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43942932349183,"sku":"9780745339542","price":31.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_82113f2e-5ac4-4340-84ae-9843f03a9d86.jpg?v=1681495209","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/disasters-and-social-reproduction-peer-illner-9780745339542","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
