Book Synopsis The Rise and Fall of the Amazon Rubber Industry by : Stephen Nugent
Download or read book The Rise and Fall of the Amazon Rubber Industry written by Stephen Nugent and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this engaging book, Stephen Nugent offers an in-depth historical anthropology of a widely recognised feature of the Amazon region, examining the dramatic rise and fall of the rubber industry. He considers rubber in the Amazon from the perspective of a long-term extractive industry that linked remote forest tappers to technical innovations central to the industrial transformation of Europe and North America, emphasizing the links between the social landscape of Amazonia and the global economy. Through a critical examination focused on the rubber industry, Nugent addresses myths that continue to influence perceptions of Amazonia. The book challenges widely held assumptions about the hyper-naturalism of the ‘lost world’ of the Amazon where ‘the challenge of the tropics’ is still to be faced and the ‘frontiers of development’ are still to be settled. It is relevant for students and scholars of anthropology, Latin American studies, history, political ecology, geography and development studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first complete account of the rise and fall of the rubber economy in Brazil provides a dramatic example of one of the boom and bust cycles traditionally associated with Brazilian economic history. The Amazon rubber trade was one of the most important export booms in the history of Latin America, dominating the economic life of the Amazon for 70 years until the successful cultivation of rubber trees by the British in Southeast Asia. Yet this long period of vigorous economic activity left the basic structure of Amazonian society relatively unchanged. One of the author's main concerns is to explore why rubber exports did not generate substantial growth in either the industrial or the agricultural sector, and she finds the answers primarily in the relations of production and exchange that characterized the Amazon's extractive economy. The study also considers the impact of political decentralization and regionalism on the Amazonian economy, draws comparisons with the coffee boom in Sao Paulo that induced sustained industrial growth in that area, and traces the consequences of the rubber economy's collapse on the social, political, and economic life in the Amazon.

This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Famous explorer and author, Joseph Fourde Woodroffe spent his life conquering the unknown and sharing his knowledge with other historians and explorers via his books. One of two books Woodroffe wrote on the Amazon, The Rubber Industry of the Amazon is an in-depth exploration of the culture, commerce, and capitalization of the resources and people along the mighty Amazon river. The second longest river in the world at 4,345 miles, the Amazon has long been a paragon of mystery, housing some of the world's most valuable resources and the most reclusive native people. An international rubber 'boom' in the 1800s exposed this region to the undue influence of European and Asian investors, culture, and disease, resulting in major changes within the region. Woodroffe makes an effort to expose the horrendous treatment of the native people, emphasizing the incredible toll of outside influence and the unjust monopolization of both resources and profits for outside gain, much of which he attributes to the folly of the Monroe Doctrine. This doctrine, established for former president, James Monroe, is an attempt to prohibit European colonization and instead view new forays into colonization as acts of international aggression. Woodroffe is of the opinion that the United States has no business in South America and that by refusing to allow colonization, the U.S. is actually harming the native people of the Amazon. While Woodroffe's position may not be popular among today's historians, there is no arguing with the compelling and detailed logic delineated in The Rubber Industry of the Amazon. This book tells a fascinating story of civilization and industrialization, and clearly articulates a staunchly conservative view of capitalism. It would be an excellent read for anyone interested in World politics, commerce, the history of the Amazon basin, early exploration of the Amazon, or a general interest reader, hoping to glean new insight into the world of the mysterious and ancient Amazon rain forest.
