Organized around New Orleans and South Louisiana as a case study, this book examines how the unruly Mississippi River and its muddy delta shaped the people, culture, and governance of the region. It proposes a framework of \"muddy thinking\" to gum the wheels of extractive capitalism and pollution that have brought us to the precipice of planetary collapse. \u003ci\u003eMuddy Thinking\u003c\/i\u003e calls upon our dirty, shared histories to address urgent questions of mutual survival and care in a rapidly changing world. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ned Randolph","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48199556399355,"sku":"9780520397217","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_a649b7a1-49dc-40e4-8902-a7422670c71f.jpg?v=1770684891","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/muddy-thinking-in-the-mississippi-river-delta-9780520397217","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
