Table of ContentsReviews“In this insightful book, Nicholas Paliewicz encounters the horrifying aftermath of colonial and ecological violence, uncovers the resources that Rio Tinto uses to alchemically generate a shifting—and shifty—set of corporate personae, and visits scenes of Indigenous and environmentalist resistance. Extraction Politics is at once a damning critique of extractive corporate rhetoric, a careful celebration of grassroots resistance, and a clarion call to stay with the trouble of entangled, impure earthly coexistence.” —Joshua Trey Barnett,author of Mourning in the Anthropocene “This book makes an important connection between recent scholarship on ecological and new materialist rhetorics and the ongoing work of understanding corporations as powerful rhetorical actors. At a time when these institutions garner more and more power and resources, Paliewicz has done the hard work of locating corporate rhetoric as a shared, entangled process spread across multiple sites. For anyone interested in corporate rhetoric, or the rhetorics that shape economies generally, this is essential reading.” —Timothy Johnson,author of Rhetoric, Inc.: Ford’s Filmmaking and the Rise of Corporatism Author InformationNicholas Paliewicz is Associate Professor in the Department of Communication at the University of Louisville.
