520    "How and why are U.S. transnational corporations investing
       in the lives, educations, and futures of poor, racialized 
       girls and women in the Global South? Is it a solution to 
       ending poverty? Or is it a pursuit of economic growth and 
       corporate profit? Drawing on more than a decade of 
       research in the United States and Brazil, this book 
       focuses on how the philanthropic, social responsibility, 
       and business practices of various corporations use a logic
       of development that positions girls and women as 
       instruments of poverty alleviation and new frontiers for 
       capitalist accumulation. Using the Girl Effect, the 
       philanthropic brand of Nike, Inc., as a central case study,
       the book examines how these corporations seek to address 
       the problems of gendered poverty and inequality, yet do so
       using an instrumental logic that shifts the burden of 
       development onto girls and women without transforming the 
       structural conditions that produce poverty. These 
       practices, in turn, enable corporations to expand their 
       legitimacy, authority, and reach while sidestepping 
       contradictions in their business practices that often 
       exacerbate conditions of vulnerability for girls and 
       women. With a keen eye towards justice, author Kathryn 
       Moeller concludes that these corporatized development 
       practices de-politicize girls' and women's demands for 
       fair labor practices and a just global economy."--Provided
