This book is the first green criminology text to focus specifically on Latin America. Green criminology has always adopted a broad horizon and explicitly emphasised that environmental crimes and harms affect countries and cultures around the world. The chapters collected here illuminate and describe the "theft of nature" and the "poisoning of the land" in Latin America through and from processes of biopiracy, agro-industry expansion, legal and illegal trafficking of free-born non-human animals, and mining. Through a discussion of multiple perspectives including: corporate executives, public officials, industry representatives, small growers of oil palm and local palm oil critics in Tumaco, and NGOs with a critical stance towards agroindustrial palm oil production, the mechanisms and relations of power that invest practices and discourses of harm are interrogated and analysed. An authoritative and well-researched study, this book will be of great interest to policy makers and scholars of green criminology and environmental studies.
