Anthropologist Marina Welker draws on two years of research at Newmont Mining Corporation's Denver headquarters and its Batu Hijau copper and gold mine in Sumbawa, Indonesia, to address these questions. Against the backdrop of an emerging Corporate Social Responsibility movement and changing state dynamics in Indonesia, she shows how people enact the mining corporation in multiple ways: as an ore producer, employer, patron, promoter of sustainable development, religious sponsor, auditable organization, foreign imperialist, and environmental threat. Rather than assuming that corporations are monolithic, profit-maximizing subjects, Welker turns to anthropological theories of personhood to develop an analytic model of the corporation as an unstable collective subject with multiple authors, boundaries, and interests. Enacting the Corporation demonstrates that corporations are constituted through continuous struggles over relations with-and responsibilities to-local communities, workers, activists, governments, contractors, and shareholders.Mineral industriesSocial aspectsIndonesiaSumbawa IslandSocial responsibility of businessIndonesiaSumbawa IslandSocial responsibility of businessColoradoGreenwood Villageactivists.anthropology.batu hijau.big business.business ethics.business.collective subject.copper mines.corporate social responsibility movement.corporations.denver.employer.environmental threat.gold mines.government and governing.imperialism.imperialist.indonesia.local communities.miners.mining.money and power.natural resource extraction industry.newmont mining corporation.ore producer.patron.personhood.religious sponsor.shareholders.sumbawa.sustainable development.workers.Mineral industriesSocial aspectsSocial responsibility of businessSocial responsibility of business338.8/872209598Welker Marina1973-1498426MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787605803321Enacting the corporation3723985UNINA
