FLAGSTAFF — NAU Dept. of Comparative Cultural Studies will present “Disrupting mining in Honduras: Hegemony, territorial struggles, and contradictions of the neoliberal mafia-state” with Nate Edenhofe at 6 p.m. Thursday, March 21 at Liberal Arts 136.
Anti-mining movements have put extractivism on the defensive in Honduras.
Why did mining production fail to expand in Honduras despite some of—if not the— most aggressive pro-extractive reforms on the continent?
Both existing theories of extractivism and social movements have difficulty explaining this outcome.
