Professor’s Kristin Ciupa and Jeffery Webber join the podcast to discuss their new co-edited volume The Labor of Extraction in Latin America that was recently published by Rowman & Littlefield as part of the "Latin American Perspectives in the Classroom" series.
This edited volume traces the power of labor in extractive sectors in Latin America starting in the 1980s and shows how labor shapes national export sectors, economies, politics, and societies more broadly. Bringing together a team of international experts who look at labor in several extractive sectors—including oil and gas, mining and agriculture, and migrant labor, the volume presents a variety of viewpoints and case studies, exploring themes of the strategic organizing potential of extractive workers, the rise of informal labor and its impact on organizing and worker solidarity, and migrant labor-power as extraction.
Kristin Ciupa is an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Regina and the author of the forthcoming book The Political Economy of Oil in Venezuela: Class Conflict, the State, and the World Market.
Jeffery R. Webber is a professor of politics at York University, Toronto. He is the author or co-author of five books, and co-editor of two books. Most recently, he co-authored The Impasse of the Latin American Left (Duke 2022) with scholars Franck Gaudichaud and Massimo Modonesi.
