Description
Polluted Politics explores the development of an Israeli-Palestinian e-waste economy and its implications for environmental justice and regional politics. The authors provide a detailed analysis of how electronic waste streams have become politicized within the Middle East, creating unique economic relationships and environmental challenges.
Through extensive research and case studies, Davis and Garb examine the infrastructure of e-waste management, the actors involved in its recycling and disposal, and how these systems reflect and reinforce broader geopolitical dynamics. The book considers the environmental and health impacts on Palestinian communities while tracing the economic networks that connect Israeli and Palestinian actors across waste management sectors.
This work contributes to understanding how environmental issues intersect with conflict, occupation, and sustainable development in the region, offering insights relevant to both Middle Eastern studies and global environmental justice discussions.
