GENERAL COMMENTS

Instructor

It is clear that a great deal of work has gone into this essay. It is well researched and exceptionally well- written. You do a good job of connecting together your three chosen concepts, and your theorization of 'waste' places and populations is interesting and imaginative (there's quite a lot of contemporary work that deals with the intersection of race and waste - see the article I have linked to in the text for an example).

A very strong engagement with key module themes. Well done.

Comment 6

A useful definition. Good.

Comment 7

Hmm. Well it depends what we're counting as race. Anti-essentialist approaches do not deny the existence of genetic differences between human beings. What we contest is their extrapolation into racial categories.

Comment 8

Great connection.

There is much more that can be said about the intersection between race and waste. This, for example.
