Putting Government in its Place: Cultural Racism, Sentiment, and Neoliberalism in Contemporary United States Responses to Natural Disasters Abroad

Putting Government in its Place: Cultural Racism, Sentiment, and Neoliberalism in Contemporary United States Responses to Natural Disasters Abroad

Corinne Mary Wohlford

Description

This dissertation engages with the apparently paradoxical relationship between popular sentimental expressions of U.S. support and solidarity for disaster victims, on the one hand, and the privatizing, nondemocratic interventions that support neoliberal capitalism, on the other.
