🎙️🌎 Sacrifice Zones: The Price of Progress?
In this episode of the Oxford Policy Podcast, we sit down with legal scholar Iza Linazasoro to uncover the harsh realities of sacrifice zones—communities forced to bear the cost of industrial development at the expense of their health and environment.
Featuring the Quintero Bay case in Chile, Linazasoro highlights the environmental, social, and health impacts of industrial pollution. She also discusses the roles of various stakeholders, the power imbalances, and the inadequate institutional responses. The conversation includes insights into international frameworks and policies necessary to address these injustices and emphasises the importance of community involvement and advocacy in policy-making.
