Hydropower in Authoritarian Brazil: An Environmental History of Low-Carbon Energy, 1960s–90s - Studies in Environment and History
Johnson, Matthew P. (Harvard University, Massachusetts)
In the later twentieth century, Brazil's right-wing military dictatorship built a spate of low carbon hydropower dams to electrify its cities and industries. The costs fell disproportionately on Indigenous communities and the environment. Johnson examines the implications across Brazil alongside global questions of politics and environmentalism.
