Natural Resources, Inequality and Conflict

Editat de Hamid E. Ali, Lars-Erik Cederman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 ian 2023
This edited volume explores the link between natural resources and civil conflict, focusing especially on protest and violence in the context of mining and the extraction of minerals. The primary goal of the book is to analyze how the conflict-inducing effect of natural resources is mediated by inequality and grievances. Given the topicality of the current boom in mining, the main empirical focus is on non-fuel minerals. The work contains large-N studies of fuel and non-fuel resources and their effect on conflict. It presents case studies focusing on Zambia, India, Guatemala, and Burkina Faso, which investigate the mechanisms between the extraction of natural resources and violent conflict. Finally, the book provides a summary of the previous analyses.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

This edited volume explores the link between natural resources and civil conflict, focusing especially on protest and violence in the context of mining and the extraction of minerals. The primary goal of the book is to analyze how the conflict-inducing effect of natural resources is mediated by inequality and grievances. Given the topicality of the current boom in mining, the main empirical focus is on non-fuel minerals. The volume is structured in four parts. Part I sets the stage of the volume in two chapters. Part II contains large-N studies of fuel and non-fuel resources and their effect on conflict. Based on qualitative methods, Part III presents case studies focusing on Zambia, India, Guatemala and Burkina Faso, which investigate the mechanisms between the extraction of natural resources and violent conflict. Finally, Part IV provides a summary of the previous analyses.
