This ultimately crystallises in what he terms mis-difference: a calcified, difficult-to-overcome obstacle to concord and fairness that underpins capitalist relations of property and production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the same time, Ioris shows how some social actors use the concept of difference for reconciliation and overcoming indifference and mis-difference. He suggests how these moves can help to fight against ideologies that produce our unequal world and facilitate land-grabs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIoris elucidates all of this in concrete terms through a study of the Guarani-Kaiowa people in Brazil. He examines how they have been oppressed by state-sanctioned indifference and mis-difference, and how they are resisting through a contestation of what difference can mean, and how it can function, in the contemporary world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47934040867052,"sku":"9781350444812","price":133.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781350444812-geographies-of-difference-indifference-and-mis-difference.jpg?v=1783892149"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/collections\/antonio-augusto-rossotto-ioris.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
