When core countries pay semi-peripheral and peripheral countries to store their contaminated waste and when core countries pay low-wage workers in peripheral countries to mine precious metals for jewelry, this is evidence of:
a) Increased cultural hybridization wherein most rich countries exploit the natural resources of poor countries.
b) Organizations operating in one country being able to undercut those operating in multiple countries.
c) Living in a world risk society wherein some rich countries export risks and others absorb them.
d) Developing a risk society wherein rich people enjoy protection from very real harms.
