Resource Conflicts in Latin America: Geographies of Oil, Gas, and Minerals
Dr. Gabriela Valdivia, Associate Prof. of Geography, University of North Carolina, Living with Oil in Ecuador
This series will explore the social, economic, and ecological consequences of natural resource extractivism in Latin America. Speakers will trace the macro-economic demands for non-renewable finite resources in the region examining the ways resource extraction has altered the built environment and re-figured social and labor relations. Drawing on long-term, ethnographic research in Bolivia and Ecuador, the speakers also imagine and envision more environmentally and socially just futures.
