Centering the Korle Lagoon: Exploring blue political ecologies of E-Waste in Ghana
Among emerging studies of the global political economy and ecology of electronic waste (or e-waste), few directly explore the already complex waste trades and materialities in relation to the general political ecology of water, flood control, dredging, and neoliberal ecological restoration. Even fewer focus on how this political-ecological challenge is unfolding in a West African context where ocean-based e-waste trades have played a dominant rol…
Bodies, Toxins, and E-Waste Labour Interventions in Ghana: Toward a Toxic Postcolonial Corporality
This article explores the lived experience of electronic waste (e-waste) workers in Agbogbloshie, a primary e-waste recycling center and scrap metal market in Accra, Ghana, that has been described by international environmental organizations as one of the most polluted places on Earth. To formulate a more critical and contextual understanding of the lives of these e-waste workers and their embodied toxic experience, the article introduces the con…
Vapor Intrusion: The Political Ecology of an Emerging Environmental Health Concern
This article explores the role of ethnography and political ecology theory amid an emerging environmental public health debate: vapor intrusion. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines vapor intrusion as the migration of volatile organic compounds from a contaminated groundwater source into overlying buildings. Like many other environmental health risks, vapor intrusion debates invoke particular socioenvironmental politics…
Envisioning the political ecology of mitigation in a microelectronic disaster setting
This article draws on ethnographic data to explore lived experiences and narratives of mitigation unfolding in a toxic waste site in Endicott, New York, the birthplace of International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) and the location of a contentious U.S. EPA Superfund Site. It introduces the political ecology of mitigation concept and showcases how this critical approach to toxics repair can inform contemporary environmental social science d…
