For-profit democracy : why the government is losing the trust of rural America

Ashwood, Loka L. (author.).

Summary: Why is government distrust rampant, especially in the rural United States? This text offers a simple explanation: corporations and the government together dispossess rural people of their prosperity, and even their property. Based on four years of fieldwork, this eye-opening assessment by sociologist Loka Ashwood plays out in a mixed-race Georgia community that hosted the first nuclear power reactors sanctioned by the government in three decades.
