El "Enverdecimiento," Fase Superior Del Extractivismo
A partir de las perspectivas ecosocialista y ecofeminista, este artículo examina el impacto negativo del extractivismo como una actividad económica que extrae una gran cantidad de recursos naturales, y evalúa cómo se ha desarrollado la gestión ecológica del capital global en América Central y América del Sur, lo cual se denomina "enverdecimiento". Se abordan tres preguntas: ¿cómo se ha organizado la red regional y local sobre la gobernanza de la …
Extractivism in the Americas' Indigenous
This chapter examines the impact of extractive activities and the large amount of natural resources it removes. Centered on ecofeminist perspectives, it evaluates the global capital’s ecological management in North, Central, and South America. Four questions are addressed: how extractivism has been organized; how women’s movements against violence in their territories defy extractivism; how Indigenous peoples’ movements against oil and mining hav…

The Greening of the Americas
This paper evaluates global capital's ecological management and extends the assessment to the "green economy," as developed in the first "green" neoliberal project, in Costa Rica. Costa Rica has been an important "laboratory" for experimentation in environmental governance mechanisms using debt-for-nature financial exchanges and other instruments of the Kyoto Protocol. I explore how "greening" can be understood as a new phase of capital accumulat…

Women, Enclosure, and Accumulation
Conservation as enclosure
Data used in this analysis was collected as part of a post-doctoral research grant awarded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) in 2001. This paper benefited from the “Women's Studies Working Paper Series” at Brock University, particularly June Corman's comments and Judith Blackwell's editing
Enclosure and Micro-enterprise as Sustainable Development
This study demonstrates that debt-for-nature investment conforms to the neoclassical model of economic development which itself underlies the current environmental, social, and cultural crisis. The NGOs funded under the debt-for-nature swap operationalize the ostensible commitment of the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the corporate environmental NGOs to pursue “sustainable development” and “gender equity” by means of the capitali…
