{"product_id":"9781780322025","title":"Capitalism: A Structural Genocide","description":"In the wake of the global financial crisis, and ongoing savage government cuts across the world, Garry Leech addresses a pressing and necessary topic: the nature of contemporary capitalism, and how it inherently generates inequality and structural violence.  Drawing on a number of fascinating case studies from across the world - including the forced displacement of farmers in Mexico, farmer suicides in India, and deaths from preventable and treatable diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa, as well as the unsustainable exploitation of the planet's natural resources - Leech provocatively argues that global capitalism constitutes a form of genocide against the poor, particularly in the global South.  Essential and eye-opening the book questions the legitimacy of a system that inevitably results in such large-scale human suffering, while going beyond mere critique to offer a more egalitarian, democratic and sustainable global alternative.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47181502021872,"sku":"9781780322025","price":20.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781780322025_p0.jpg?v=1763713579","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781780322025","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
