Synopsis "Indigenous Peoples and Oil Extraction: The Fight for Land, Life, and Environmental Justice"

This book examines oil extraction as a socio-economic and political process that reshapes local lifeworlds, state structures, and global power relations. Focusing on petroleum-producing regions, it analyses how the exploitation of subsurface resources generates dependency, inequality, and conflict, while producing narratives of development, progress, and national sovereignty. Drawing on ethnographic perspectives, political economy, and historical analysis, the study explores interactions between multinational corporations, state actors, and local communities. Particular attention is given to transformations of land, labour, and social relations under extractive capitalism, as well as to the cultural and moral economies surrounding oil wealth. The book argues that oil is not merely an economic resource but a social force that restructures authority, identity, and future expectations. Combining empirical case material with a comparative analytical framework, the volume contributes to anthropology, development studies, and resource studies, offering a nuanced account of oil extraction as a defining feature of contemporary global capitalism.
