[gep-ed] My article on Chile constitution, Left gov + lithium governance
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.

[gep-ed] My book, /Resource Radicals/ out with Duke UP & on sale
Hi All, My book, Resource Radicals: From Petro-Nationalism to Post-Extractivism in Ecuador <https://www.dukeupress.edu/resource-radicals>, is out with Duke University Press and covers topics of interest to many on this list (brief description below). It's also on sale with the rest of the catalogue at 50% off, using code FALL2020. And, you can download and read the introduction on the book's website, linked to above. Yours warmly, Thea -- Thea Riofrancos (she/her) Assistant Professor of Political Science, Providence College Fellow, Radcliffe Institute (2020-2021) Fellow, Carnegie Corporation (2020-2022) http://www.theariofrancos.com/ *Resource Radicals: From Petro-Nationalism to Post-Extractivism in Ecuador * In 2007, the left came to power in Ecuador. In the years that followed, the “twenty-first-century socialist” government and a coalition of grassroots activists came to blows over the extraction of natural resources. Each side declared the other a perversion of leftism and the principles of socioeconomic equality, popular empowerment, and anti-imperialism. In *Resource Radicals*, Thea Riofrancos unpacks the conflict between these two leftisms: on the one hand, the administration's resource nationalism and focus on economic development; and on the other, the anti-extractivism of grassroots activists who condemned the government's disregard for nature and indigenous communities. In this archival and ethnographic study, Riofrancos expands the study of resource politics by decentering state resource policy and locating it in a field of political struggle populated by actors with conflicting visions of resource extraction. She demonstrates how Ecuador's commodity-dependent economy and history of indigenous uprisings offer a unique opportunity to understand development, democracy, and the ecological foundations of global capitalism. “*Resource Radicals* is an insightful and ultimately optimistic interpretation of social mobilization around natural resource extraction in Ecuador. Thea Riofrancos eschews simple resource curse theory, viewing mobilization as a potential pathway toward more productive modes of governing extractive industry. Sensitive to both anti-extractivist and ‘Pink Tide’ approaches to resource extraction, she offers a nuanced analysis of resource politics and the complex challenges facing regimes that seek to govern the subsoil for progressive change.” — Anthony Bebbington, coauthor of *Governing Extractive Industries: Politics, Histories, Ideas* “This is a valuable, sensitive, and generous study of the new shapes that left politics has taken in the twenty-first century as crises of ecology and inequality swirl together. It's an essential basis for understanding the challenges ahead.” — Jedediah Purdy, author of *This Land Is Our Land: The Struggle for a New Commonwealth* "[Riofranco's] scholarship is an example of internationalist solidarity in critical practice, the kind to which we may all aspire, and to which our current moment demands." — Hilary Goodfriend, *Jacobin Magazine* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "gep-ed" group.

Re: [gep-ed] Tragedy of the Commons
Hi All, For anyone teaching "tragedy of the commons" I suggest also assigning something that situates Garrett Hardin as a very important figure in the history of the nativist right-wing in the U.S., as well as attacks on the welfare state. It's important for students to understand he had a very clear ideological and normative perspective on issues of immigration, public goods, etc. See, e.g., https://thebaffler.com/latest/first-as-tragedy-then-as-fascism-amend I would also suggest complementing with Elinor Ostrom's nobel-prize winning work on the many empirical examples of cooperation around resource and land use.

[gep-ed] Fires in the Amazon: One Way to Help
Hi All, I am sure we are all following the news on the Amazon fires closely (and see this excellent analysis today in the Boston Review <http://bostonreview.net/science-nature/gianpaolo-baiocchi-apocalypse-now>). Many of us wonder how we can act in solidarity with those directly affected. I would like to pass on a message from a friend and colleague Julie Klinger, whose work on rare earth minerals you may know. Message copied below. Yours, Thea - A lot of people are wondering what they can do re: Amazon fires. At the request of Yanomami spokesperson Davi Kopenawa, who was here in May, we have created an English-language website for his organization, Hutukara. The site can be accessed here: https://arcg.is/0vHGrj0 Because the Brazilian Government has obstructed two key channels of funding to ISA, their capacity to provide continued support to Hutukara has been undermined. Several key staff, some of whom have worked with indigenous communities for years, have recently lost their jobs. Donations to Hutukara go directly to provide for security and legal fees to help Davi and his partners, including ISA, to combat the ongoing violence against Indigenous peoples and the Rainforest. Research shows that empowering indigenous people, more than any other strategy attempted over the past 50 years, is the most effective way to protect the Amazon. In organizing this website, we have partnered with Rainforest Foundation, US, to process donations and to ensure that they are tax deductible. I hope you will consider forwarding this to your networks because it is a concrete answer to the question so many are rightly asking right now: "What can we do to help?" Every donation, however modest, helps. The matter is urgent. -- Thea Riofrancos Assistant Professor Department of Political Science Providence College http://www.theariofrancos.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "gep-ed" group.
