"Life without Lead examines the social, political and environmental dimensions of
a devastating lead poisoning epidemic. Drawing from a political ecology of health
perspective, the book situates the Uruguayan lead contamination crisis in relation
to neoliberal reform, globalization, and the resurgence of the political Left in Latin
America. The author traces the rise of an environmental justice social movement, and
the local and transnational circulation of environmental ideologies and contested
science. Through fine-grained ethnographic analysis, this book shows how combating
contamination intersected with class politics, the relationship of lead poisoning
to poverty, and debates over the best way to identify and manage an unprecedented
local environmental health problem"--Provided by publisher
