The book applies Achille Mbembe’s theorization of necropolitics to the environmental racism of the US War on Drugs in Colombia, specifically the aerial eradication of coca in the \u003ci\u003ecomunidades negras\u003c\/i\u003e of the Pacific Coast.

Far from being a study singularly focused on the symptoms of environmental issues, this book creatively guides us toward a broader understanding of environmental racism and justice across geographic scales and non\/human agencies.","brand":"Alexander Huezo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42963965542518,"sku":"9780520387935","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/1374\/6550\/files\/CoreSourceHub_5754fa7c-4c0e-49a3-b8b2-0bcd672d67de.jpg?v=1767874505","url":"https:\/\/ingramacademic.com\/products\/visions-of-global-environmental-justice-9780520387935","provider":"Ingram Academic \u0026 Professional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
