Poison
Keywords:
corporations, poison, politics, StateAbstract
The use of poisons in Argentina is a state policy. Territories intended for agricultural production are constantly sprayed with chemicals that are prohibited in other parts of the world. However, in our country there are “public”-private or business-“state” alliances that enable the marketing, transportation and daily use of poison on our territories.
Paula Blois and Guillermo Folguera analyze poison in its political dimension, pointing out the way in which actors, companies and public institutions configure a “politics of poison” that profoundly alters our reality, intervenes in multiple ways in our bodies and in our territories and it determines our ways of living and dying.
