Mines, Communities, and States

Beschreibung

When do local communities benefit from natural resource extraction? This book explores why mining companies distribute benefits of mineral extraction locally, when local communities are dissatisfied and protest, and how governments respond. In this book, Jessica Steinberg focuses on Africa, where natural resources are extremely important for the national economy.
