Fundamental obstacles to the global and local response to this unholy nexus include objective inequality between and within nations, subjective consequences of uneven development, and 'economism', in which solutions are framed in economic language and rules that ignore or marginalize social justice. Drawing on the social justice framework propounded by, among others, Amartya Sen, Md Saidul Islam and Md Ismail Hossain unpack this critical nexus, investigating how neoliberal flexible accumulation generates unique conditions, contradictions, and confrontations in labor, gender and environmental relations. They also examine whether and how a broader social justice can mitigate tensions and improve conditions"--Back cover. 650 0 $a Social justice. 650 0 $a Social justice $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Production (Economic theory) $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Labor and globalization $x Social aspects. 700 1 $a Hossain, Md.
