This edited volume traces the power of labor in extractive sectors in Latin America starting in the 1980s and shows how labor shapes national export sectors, economies, politics, and societies more broadly. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKristin Ciupa and Jeffery R. Webber bring together a team of international experts who look at labor in several extractive sectors--including oil and gas, mining and agriculture, and migrant labor. They present a variety of viewpoints and case studies, exploring themes of the strategic organizing potential of extractive workers, the rise of informal labor and its impact on organizing and worker solidarity, and migrant labor-power as extraction. The book analyzes relationships between workers, extractive companies, states, political parties, national social sectors, and global commodity markets. The Labor of Extraction in Latin America puts the question of labor organizing to the forefront of discussions on Latin America's ongoing history of extractive capitalism, its effects on nature, and resistance against it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributions by: \u003c\/b\u003eFernando Cazón, Kristin Ciupa, Aleida Hernández Cervantes, Phillip A.
