Building from scrapwar, recycling, and labor in Iraqi Kurdistan /[electronic resource] :by Umut Kuruuzum. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2022. - xi, 203 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1: Relating Capital in Iraqi Kurdistan -- Chapter 2: Industrial Conversion -- Chapter 3: Recycling War Scrap -- Chapter 4: Reconstructing Iraqi Kurdistan -- Chapter 5: Capitalization of Migrants -- Chapter 6: Relating Insecurities -- Chapter 7: Uneven Independence.

This book is about the flourishing scrap recycling industry, reconstruction, and state-making in Iraqi Kurdistan within the wider conditions of the war economy, ruination, and state disintegration in Iraq. Through a dialectical relationship between the afterlife and continuity of war over distinct but conjoined landscapes, it examines industrial work, labouring, and statelessness on a frontier territory near the self-proclaimed Islamic State (ISIS) By documenting the advance of the global steelmaking industry, the spread and erosion of selective state sovereignty, and the struggle of dispossessed workers, the book sketches the economic geography of a contemporary market expansion over the northeast of Iraq in a relational and dynamic way. Umut Kuruuzum is Assistant Professor of cultural economics at Istanbul Technical University, Turkey, who has been working on war economies, ruination, waste, recycling industries, and labor in the contemporary Middle East. He is a London School of Economics (MSc, PhD) trained economic anthropologist, and he is currently leading a research project on plastic pollution, toxicity, and the inequalities of climate change on the north-eastern Mediterranean coast.
