Resource Extractivism and Environmental (In)justice This roundtable convenes experts from ZEF/Global Heritage Lab, BICC and the BCDSS to discuss the historical and contemporary impacts of extractivism across a range of global contexts and natural resources. Central questions to be discussed will entail the violent colonial origins of resource extraction, current conflicts and consequences for local communities, and possible ways into the future. Framed in a larger context of environmental (in)justice, and attending to matters of ethics, sustainability and dependency, the discussants will bring to the table their respective disciplinary backgrounds, spanning governance and conflict studies, development politics, the environmental humanities and dependency studies. https://www.dependency.uni-bonn.de/en/outreach/events/resource-extractivism-and-environmental-in-justice https://www.dependency.uni-bonn.de/@@site-logo/Logo BCDSS_web.png
