Suleyman Demirel University in partnership with PaperLab welcomes all to the public presentation of the book Rentier Capitalism and Its Discontents: Power, Morality, and Resistance in Central Asia written by Balihar Sanghera and Elmira Satybaldieva.
This book explains and evaluates today’s economic, political, social, and ecological crises through the lens of rentier capitalism and countermovements in Central Asia. Over the last three decades, the rich and powerful have increased their wealth and political power to the detriment of social and environmental well-being. But their activities have not gone unchecked. Grassroots activism has resisted the harmful and damaging effects of the neoliberal commodification of things.
Location: Almaty, 208 Baizakova st., Smartpoint coworking center, Freedom hall
Date and time: 10 June, 10:00 a.m.
