Description: Broken Ground employs a construction project in the Oregon desert as the basis for a story with far-reaching political and moral implications. Hank Lafleur has been sent to supervise the project, which is a prison-for-profit financed by a multinational corporation under government contract, and meant to house felons, illegal immigrants, and, as Lafleur comes to learn, political prisoners from Latin America. Broken Ground is remarkable for its prophetic vision of the hollow securities promised by incarceration and of the effects of "privatization" as an armature of American imperialism-in both the domestic and international realms. Cover has a blemish on the top of the spine and and mark on the front that looks like a discoloration from a price sticker. Inside is clean and uncreased.Shipping is $3.95 for media mail within the United States. Thanks for looking!
