The materialization of El Zapotillo Dam in the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico
El metabolismo social de la comunalidad reconfigurada en Milpa Alta
Con base en un análisis de las luchas de los pueblos originarios nahuas de Milpa Alta en la Ciudad de México, este artículo aborda la siguiente pregunta: ¿Cómo ha sido posible conservar grandes extensiones de bosque y tierras agrícolas en una demarcación que forma parte de una de las ciudades más grandes del mundo, en rápida expansión desde mediados del siglo pasado? La explicación articula dos categorías clave: la comunalidad reconfigurada en Mi…
Two sides of the same coin
This article seeks to explain the multiplication of social environmental conflicts in Mexico as a consequence of expanding and intensifying extractive activities. It examines how the Mexican state has provided private and foreign capital greater access to the country’s natural resources in the transition from state-led import-substituting industrialization to export-oriented market-led development. This, it argues, has led to accelerating materia…
Distilling agro‐extractivism
This article seeks to challenge the notion that the concept of agro‐extractivism be restricted to crops destined for export with little or no processing. Based on a study of agave and tequila production in Mexico, it argues that the domestic processing of biomass does not change nor necessarily compensate for the negative social and environmental impacts of upstream agricultural activities; it can in fact add to them. We seek to demonstrate this …
Claves de los conflictos socioambientales mexicanos
Políticos e investigadores asumen que el crecimiento económico es imprescindible para reducir la pobreza, puesto que redunda en la creación de empleos y de financiamiento de las políticas sociales. Si bien en la posguerra el crecimiento contribuyó a reducir la pobreza, las políticas sociales ya no pueden subordinarse al imperativo del crecimiento económico debido a los límites ecológicos y los conflictos socioambientales. De ahí la relevancia de …

Resistance to Canadian mining projects in Mexico
This article analyses resistance movements to large-scale mining projects in Mexico, particularly the case of sustained organized resistance to the San Xavier Mine, in the central north state of San Luis Potosí. As one of the first struggles in Mexico against Canadian mining projects after the signing of the North American Free Trade Agreement, the leaders of this movement pioneered strategies of resistance on the legal front and were instrumenta…
Three Forms of Political Ecology
Political ecology is an epistemologically plural field of social scientific research. This article seeks to contribute to mapping out the terrain, with emphasis on contributions from Latin America. This is done by sketching out two prototypical forms of political ecology: materialist and poststructuralist, and by exploring the degree to which they can be reconciled in a third form which seeks to avoid the extremes of structural determinism and ab…
Free-Market Mining in Mexico
This paper examines the impact of neoliberal reforms on Mexico's mining sector, with a focus on the social and environmental conflicts that have emerged since the 1990s. It distinguishes between two types of conflict: labor conflicts, which stem from intensified labor exploitation in the realm of expanded reproduction; and eco-territorial conflicts around accumulation by dispossession. It argues that free-market mining in Mexico has led to Mexica…
Social Environmental Mining Conflicts in Mexico
Examination of social environmental conflicts around mining in Mexico indicates that neoliberal reforms have facilitated "accumulation by dispossession," first by transferring public resources in the form of mineral rights and state-run mining companies to the private sector and second by dispossessing smallholder farmers and indigenous communities of their land, water, and cultural landscapes in order to allow mining companies to carry out their…
Extractive Imperialism in the Americas
Recent changes in the global economy, which include a growing demand for energy and natural resources such as industrial minerals and agro-food products, have brought about a massive devastating pillage of resources in the developing world by multinational corporations as well as states with energy and food security concerns—and concerns about a system (global capitalism) in the throes of a global crisis. These developments have also brought abou…

Alternative Pathways out of Rural Poverty in Mexico
This paper critically analyses the three pathways out of rural poverty proposed by the World Bank in its 2008 World Development report (farming, labour and migration), with the following questions in mind: Has there been a reduction in the incidence of income poverty in rural Mexico during the neoliberal era and, if so, what are the main contributing factors? Is labour migration (national and international) the best pathway out of poverty, taking…
The Evolution of Poverty in Late 20 th -Century Mexico
This paper analyses the evolution of poverty in Mexico during the second half of the 20th century and points toward correlations between poverty trends and major changes to economic and social policy. Two poverty-measurement methods are used to construct a general vision of the evolution of poverty in Mexico: the poverty-line method and a variation of the unsatisfied-basic-needs method. The analysis based on the poverty-line method indicates that…
