Abstract
Description
Desde comienzos de este siglo, proyectos de empresas transnacionales destinados, fundamentalmente, a extraer a gran escala oro, plata, cobre y molibdeno vuelven a interpelar al Valle de Famatina, situado en el noroeste de Argentina, en la provincia de La Rioja. La disputa que se genera en torno a la “licencia social” de los proyectos mineros, pone en evidencia características de la matriz política local y la apuesta del gobierno por las actividades extractivas, a la vez que ilustra el contenido y la potencialidad de las resistencias sociales. La capacidad de veto de una red de asambleas de vecinos auto convocados y de una comunidad altamente movilizada en momentos críticos del conflicto se enmarca en un proceso de resistencia a la mercantilización de los bienes comunes que recorre América Latina.
Since the beginning of this century, projects of transnational corporations design to extract -in a mega scale- gold, silver, copper, and molybdenum are back to interrogate Famatina Valley, located in the northwest of Argentina, in the province of La Rioja. The dispute that is generated around the "social license" of mining projects highlights features of policy matrix and local government backing for extractive activities. At the same time illustrates the content and the potentiality of social resistance. The power of veto from a network of neighbors assemblies and a highly mobilized community in critical moments of the conflict is framed in a process of resistance to mercantilization of commons that travels through Latin America.
