The stock market. 520 $a As a manufacturer of food and animal feed, seeds and chemical products, Monsanto is relentlessly developing and marketing new technologies. The monopoly it has arguably secured by dubious means bears no relation to its negligence with regard to potential risks. Particularly in light of the devastating consequences that are still causing suffering to people and the environment in many places, the company's self-portrayal as a forward-looking, omnipotent force for good seems cynical. The photographer Mathieu Asselin, who lives in France and Venezuela, has tried his hand at the daunting task of exploring the issues surrounding Monsanto. His investigative photographic study manages to capture the complexity of this topic, creating links between past, present and future and illuminating many different aspects from a variety of perspectives. 546 $a Parallel text in French and English. 610 20 $a Monsanto Company $v Pictorial works. 600 10 $a Asselin, Mathieu. 650 0 $a Chemical industry $x Environmental aspects $z United States $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Herbicides industry $x Environmental aspects $z United States $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Hazardous waste sites $z United States $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Photography, Artistic. 610 27 $a Monsanto Company. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00510977 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200806025450.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B07E2358A55F11EAA027EF1497128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
