Hi All, In case of interest, I have a new short piece focusing on the in-progress Chilean constitutional convention and the new Left government, with an eye to their implications for the governance of extraction, and particularly lithium, a "critical mineral" for the energy transition found in the vulnerable desert wetlands of the country's north.
The article is based on my most recent research trip to Chile, but also indebted to radical environmental and Indigenous movements as well as the intrepid scientists tracking the impacts of lithium extraction. Here is the piece: https://www.chathamhouse.org/publications/the-world-today/2022-06/chile-white-gold-rush Warmly, Thea -- Thea Riofrancos (she/her) Associate Professor of Political Science, Providence College Fellow, Carnegie Corporation (2020-2022) http://www.theariofrancos.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "gep-ed" group.
