Temporal frictions
This paper explores the temporalities behind resource nationalism and the liquefied natural gas project (LNG) in Tanzania. At a cost of $42 billion, the LNG project would be one of the most capital-intensive projects in Africa and would allow for export of Tanzanian gas. Focusing on the LNG negotiations during the rule of John Pombe Magufuli, this paper uses interviews with key stakeholders involved in the negotiation and planning of the LNG proj…
Piping Away Development
The article explores the evolution of resource nationalism at a local level through the construction of infrastructure. It argues that, in Mtwara, resource nationalism was combined with local perceptions and demands that were shaped through the construction of different forms of infrastructure. The discovery of gas was accompanied by infrastructure in the forms of increased electricity generation and access, improved roads, and construction of ne…
The temporalities of extractive frontiers
Research on extraction in the global margins has often emphasised the transformative effects that occur during the process of becoming a ‘resource frontier’. However, much of this research often focuses on the spatial transformations, with the temporalities of the resource frontier often being relegated to the background. This article places the temporalities of resource frontiers at the forefront. It does so by exploring the onshore and offshore…
