Book release: "Extractive Relations: Countervailing Power and the Global Mining Industry"
by John R. Owen and Deanna Kemp
Extractive Relations explores the nature of industrial power and its role in shaping the global mining sector. Owen and Kemp examine issues at the forefront of contemporary debates: corporate obligations in safeguarding the rights of people displaced by mining, the recognition of community rights and interests in supporting or opposing mining developments, the handling of non-judicial grievances and workability of corporate remedy systems, and the logic of community relations departments in navigating these issues inside and outside of the modern mining establishment.
