Bordering on trouble. Resources and politics in Latin America

Book ·
OSTI ID:6709034
;
The authors say much of regions' social, economic, and political instability, can be traced back to poor resource management. Government, corporations, and individuals alike are misusing labor, natural resources, and investment capitals, and many current U.S. policies encourage this chaos. This book focuses on specific problems - from giant hydropower projects to fragile ecosystems overwhelmed by pollution - to capture the drama now unfolding in Latin America and to offer step-by-step solutions.
