The Corporate Alibi

Capitalism and the Cultural Politics of US Investments in Africa

Omschrijving

"This thought-provoking and timely ethnography reveals how US corporations exploit Africa while undermining African governments and calls for corporate accountability and a more equitable global system."--Francis B. Nyamnjoh, University of Cape Town "Showing how US corporations use philanthropy, subsidiaries, and co-opted watchdogs to deflect scrutiny into their operations, The Corporate Alibi is important to all concerned about ethical business practices."--Patience Mususa, Nordic Africa Institute "A much-needed contribution to our understanding of how corporations work with NGOs, governments, and media to conjure an image of benevolent philanthropy while systematically stripping communities of their capacities to survive and prosper."--James H. Smith, author of The Eyes of the World: Mining the Digital Age in the Eastern DR Congo
