dc.description.abstract | This article explores the intersections between large extractive companies, security governance and human rights. It contributes to understandings of how extractive companies can influence human rights protection in their areas of operation.

Examples include: state narratives of nation-building, the financial interests of security personnel and the history of the company's involvement in the area. | |
