La Amazonia Minada | eds. Karolien van Teijlingen et al.
Minería a gran escala y conflictos en el Sur del Ecuador
28 september 2017
As the first large-scale mineral mine of Ecuador, the Mirador project in the Ecuadorian Amazon region has become an emblematic spearhead of both the country’s new resource politics and the resistance movements against these policies.
This book bundles the work of various political ecologists who researched this case during the last decade, and critically engages with the territorial conflicts, water battles, identity politics, participation processes and the politics of knowledge characterizing this case. As such, this edited volume provides thought-provoking and unique insights in the conflicts and dynamics on the expanding mining frontier in Ecuador, Latin America and beyond.
