A feast of flowers : race, labor, and postcolonial capitalism in Ecuador

Christopher Krupa

"In A Feast of Flowers, Christopher Krupa examines the racial ideologies underlying capitalist expansion in the Global South. Focusing on Ecuador's booming cut-flower sector, Krupa shows how capitalist expansion bound the Global South to new modes of financial dependency and subjected Indigenous workers to elaborate forms of racial 'improvement' and uplift."
