Politics PhD Michael Wilson Becerril’s first book was recently published. It explores the violence surrounding gold extraction in Peru. Congratulations Michael!

Through an ethnographic and systematic comparison of four gold mining conflicts in Peru, Resisting Extractivism presents a vivid account of subtle and routine forms of violence, analyzing how meaning making practices render certain types of damage and suffering noticeable while occluding others.
