Flammable: Environmental Suffering in an Argentine Shantytown
Auyero, Javier (Lozano Long Professor of Latin American Sociology, Lozano Long Professor of Latin American Sociology, University of Texas-Austin)
In this collaborative ethnography, Javier Auyero and Débora Alejandra Swistun-who was born and raised in the dreadfully polluted shantytown in Buenos Aires from which the book takes its name-vividly describe everyday life in Flammable and depict how this ongoing, slow-motion environmental disaster is experienced and understood by its residents.
