Sábado 4 de enero CLAG Board meeting 7:00 am to 8:30 am 8:30 am – 10:15 am: 4 concurrent sessions 8:30 am – 10:15 am, Room A Contemporary extractivism in Latin America 1: representations and reconceptualizations This panel explores manifestations of contemporary extractivism in Latin America, as well the ways in which it can be conceptualized and represented. Extractivism goes beyond extractive industries (mining, oil, and gas) and may be better understood as a logic of rent capture that involves the extraction of natural resource rents without restoration of those resources nor of the socio-natural relations that they previously sustained. Extractivism can be manifest, then, as development strategies based on synergies between infrastructure, extractive industry, agro-industry, extensive ranching and similar, as well as in the form of smaller scale activities operating with logics of rent capture without restoration or care. Alternatives to extractivism refer not only to alternative economic activities, but also to alternatives logics based not on rent capture but diverse forms of socio-natural cohabitation. The academy, civil society, private and public sector actors have represented extractivism and its alternatives in diverse ways. The papers in this panel document a range of extractivisms and alternatives, and diverse means of representing and conceptualizing these.

11:00 am – 12:45 pm: 4 concurrent sessions 11:00 am – 12:45 pm, Room A Contemporary extractivism in Latin America 2: governance in times of violence Extractivism always involves violence, but the forms taken by such violence vary in kind and degree as well as across space and time and intersect in complex ways with the governance of the territories in which resource extraction occurs. This panel explores such violences and their implications for territorial governance and control, as well as the conditions under which more inclusive and peaceful forms of governance might emerge. The panel addresses cases from both Mesoamerican and South America, in particular covering territories affected by mining, hydrocarbons, tourism, and extractive logging.

Nowhere is this more emblematically so than in UPO’s doctoral program in Latin American history, from which (to date) some 150 students have graduated with a PhD, the majority of them from far-flung parts of Latin America itself. This panel features presentations by four recent graduates of the program – one from Costa Rica, one from Guatemala, and two from El Salvador. Magda Angélica García von Hoegen draws on her work among the youth of Verapaz, Guatemala, to highlight processes of cultural continuity and adaptation operating in their tight-knit communities. Ana Sofía Solano Acuña discusses the resistance mounted by the indigenous Guaymí of Panama to protect their lands and livelihoods, culture and identity in the face of outside intrusions in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. For El Salvador, José Heriberto Erquicia Cruz examines indigo production

and the dye’s global importance in the second half of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Also focusing on El Salvador in the eighteenth century, Ricardo Castellon reconstructs family dynamics and mobility as part of a larger study charting demographic and ethnic change.
