El sector de las industrias extractivas by Håvard Halland,Martin Lokanc,Arvind Nair,Sridar Padmanabhan Kannan Pdf

El sector de las industrias extractivas (IE) ocupa un lugar considerable en las economías de muchos países en desarrollo. Los economistas y los profesionales de las finanzas públicas que trabajan en estos países suelen enfrentarse a problemas que exigen un entendimiento profundo del sector, su economía, su buen gobierno y los desafíos en materia de políticas, así como a las consecuencias de la abundancia de recursos naturales para la gestión fiscal y de las finanzas públicas. El objetivo del estudio de tres volúmenes denominado Essentials for Economists and Public Finance Professionals, publicado en la serie de estudios realizados por el Banco Mundial, es presentar un panorama general conciso de los temas relacionados con las IE que estos profesionales probablemente deban encarar. En el primer volumen, "The Extractive Industries Sector", se ofrece una reseña general de las cuestiones fundamentales para la economía de las IE; se analizan los componentes principales del buen gobierno, las políticas y los marcos institucionales del sector, y se identifican las obligaciones de financiamiento del sector público relacionadas con las IE. El análisis de la economía de las IE abarca la valuación de los activos subterráneos, la interpretación económica del mineral y la estructura de los mercados de la energía y los minerales. En este volumen se determinan las responsabilidades de las entidades gubernamentales correspondientes y se describen las características de los marcos jurídicos y normativos del sector de las IE. Se analizan brevemente las funciones clave y específicas del sector, además de las estructuras financieras que sustentan las salvaguardas ambientales y sociales; la inversión de los ingresos públicos provenientes del petróleo, el gas o los minerales, así como la diversificación económica basada en las industrias extractivas. Los autores esperan que este volumen resulte de utilidad a los economistas y los profesionales de las finanzas públicas que trabajan en países ricos en recursos (incluidos los encargados de la toma de decisiones en ministerios de finanzas, organizaciones internacionales y otras entidades relevantes) para la comprensión y el análisis del sector de las IE.

The New Extractivism by James Petras,Henry Veltmeyer Pdf

In a primary commodities boom spurred on by the rise of China, countries the world over are turning to the extraction of natural resources and the export of primary commodities as an antidote to the global recession. The New Extractivism addresses a fundamental dilemma faced by these governments: to pursue, or not, a development strategy based on resource extraction in the face of immense social and environmental costs, not to mention mass resistance from the people negatively affected by it. With fresh insight and analysis from Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico and Peru, this book looks at the political dynamics of capitalist development in a region where the neoliberal model is collapsing under the weight of a resistance movement lead by peasant farmers and indigenous communities. It calls for us to understand the new extractivism not as a viable development model for the post-neoliberal world, but as the dangerous emergence of a new form of imperialism.

Emerging Economies and Challenges to Sustainability by Arve Hansen,Ulrikke Wethal Pdf

The rise of emerging economies represents a challenge to traditional global power balances and raises the question of how we can combine sustainability with continued economic growth. Understanding this global shift and its impact on the environment is the paramount contemporary challenge for development-oriented researchers and policy makers alike. This book breaks new ground by combining scholarship on the role of emerging economies with research on sustainable development. The book investigates how the development strategies of emerging economies challenge traditional development theory and sustainability discourses. With regional introductions and original case studies from South Asia, East Asia, Latin America and Sub-Saharan Africa, it discusses how to conceptualise sustainable development in the global race for economic prosperity. What characterises the development strategies of emerging economies, and what challenges are these posing for global sustainable development? How can emerging economies shed light on the global challenges, dilemmas and paradoxes of the relationship between socio-economic improvements and environmental degradation? This book will be a valuable resource for researchers and postgraduates in development studies, geography, economics and environmental studies.

Indigenous Responses to Mining in Post-Conflict Colombia by Diana Carolina Arbeláez Ruiz Pdf

This book examines Indigenous responses to mining and their connection to peacebuilding, focusing on the experience of the Nasa Indigenous people of North Cauca during the most recent Colombian post-agreement transition. Amid an armed conflict that has disproportionally affected and targeted the Nasa, as well as ongoing processes of dispossession and oppression, the Nasa have built a tradition of organised, peaceful resistance. This book examines the nature of their responses to mining and how this is linked to peacebuilding, with a focus on how resistance is shaped and enacted to respond to the relationship mineral extraction has with violence and peace. The work is exploratory, ethnographic and interdisciplinary in nature, sitting in the intersection between the anthropology of mining, development studies and peace and conflict studies. The author presents and analyses narratives, participant responses, and her own experiences to illustrate the context and interconnected processes shaping Nasa responses to mining during this transition period. The book will bring international readers closer to these intricate dynamics, where access is otherwise limited because of security, cultural, linguistic and other barriers. The book provides a novel perspective on post-conflict mining governance by focusing on the Nasa’s active role in responding to mining in a post-agreement, transitional context. It highlights, and encourages engagement with, the often-overlooked role of morality in debates about nature and development. This book will be of great interest to students, scholars and practitioners of the extractive industries, natural resource management, conflict management and peacebuilding, Indigenous Peoples and Latin American studies.

China Engages Latin America by R. Evan Ellis Pdf

This book explores China’s engagement with Latin America and the Caribbean as a case study of its broader effort to use commercial tools and instruments of state to create a global economic order that functions to its benefit, while neutralizing challenges from institutions, states, and others that would oppose it. Unlike the common representation of the Cold War as a political-military struggle, this work uniquely examines China’s current efforts as primarily seeking to dominate global value chains, with supporting political, technological, and military components. In this regard, it both leverages and goes beyond works based on dependency theory, which has played a key role in the academic and popular discourse in the region. The book examines evidence for China’s economically-focused strategy within Latin America and the Caribbean, including the interrelationships and coordination between China’s activities in different sectors, and between commercial, political, and other dimensions in the region. It further looks at the supporting role played by a diverse range of Chinese initiatives, from China’s Belt and Road initiative, to people-to-people diplomacy, soft power, security engagement, and the PRC struggle with Taiwan for diplomatic recognition in the region, among others. The book highlights the implications for Latin America and the Caribbean, and for the U.S. whose prosperity and security is intimately tied to the region.

Open Government and Targeted Transparency by Marcela Restrepo Hung,Sandra Elena,Estefanía Casadei,Thiago Alvim Camargo,Ezequiel Molina,Álvaro V. Ramírez Alujas,Juanita Riaño,Luciana Díaz Frers,Amon Narciso de Barros,Orazio J. Bellettini Cedeño,Sonia Tschorne Berestesky,Juan Cruz Vieyra,Nicolás Dassen,Roberto de Michele Pdf

Transparency and integrity are key factors in consolidating democratic governance and deepening the modernization of the state. The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) has been supporting country efforts to achieve open government, providing technical support and knowledge on transparency in the LAC region. With the support of the Norwegian government, the IDB created the Anticorruption Activities Trust Fund (AAF), aimed at strengthening the institutional capacity of the Bank's borrowing countries in their efforts to prevent and control corruption. After four years in operation, the fund has gained recognition, both inside and outside the Bank, as a source of innovation and best practices in terms of access to information and targeted transparency. This publication compiles some of the experiences and lessons learned from five different countries (Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Guatemala), with direct support from the AAF.

Grassroots Environmental Governance by Leah S. Horowitz,Michael J. Watts Pdf

Grassroots movements can pose serious challenges to both governments and corporations. However, grassroots actors possess a variety of motivations, and their visions of development may evolve in complex ways. Meanwhile, their relative powerlessness obliges them to forge an array of shifting alliances and to devise a range of adaptive strategies. Grassroots Environmental Governance presents a compilation of in-depth ethnographic case studies, based on original research. Each of the chapters focuses specifically on grassroots engagements with the agents of various forms of industrial development. The book is geographically diverse, including analyses of groups based in both the global North and South, and represents a range of disciplinary perspectives. This allows the collection to explore themes that cross-cut specific localities and disciplinary boundaries, and thus to generate important theoretical insights into the complexities of grassroots engagements with industry. This volume will be of great interest to scholars of environmental activism, environmental governance, and environmental studies in general.
