Do the struggles of local communities, activists and NGOs matter on a global scale? Why are there so many different global standards in mining?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book develops a new critical political economy approach to studying extractive accumulation, drawing on three detailed Indonesian cases to explain how participatory mechanisms continuously reshape and are reshaped by community-corporate conflict. Findings highlight feedback between local social relations, conflict, transnational activism, crises of legitimacy and global governance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author argues that corporate social responsibility, community development, 'gender-mainstreaming' and environmental monitoring are neither simple outcomes of corporate ethics nor mere greenwashing strategies. Rather, participation is a mechanism to undermine resistance and create social relations amenable to extractive accumulation.","brand":"ALLIANCE DIST - SF","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":41506831532165,"sku":"PR401593","price":312.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/0213\/3637\/files\/image_TNXQ71QH1NHS.jpg?v=1769640140","url":"https:\/\/smartfoxbooks.co.nz\/products\/undermining-resistance","provider":"Smartfox Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
