Globalization, Forest Resurgence, and Environmental Politics in El Salvador
Open accessAbstract
Summary Globalization is often viewed as a driver of deforestation, but there are contexts where it promotes forest recovery. This is the case in El Salvador. In spite of population densities in excess of 200 people per km2, the country, which has been seen as a Malthusian parable of population and ecological catastrophe, is now increasingly wooded. This reflects the impacts of globalization (new flows of labor, capital, commodities, and ideas) which profoundly affected the rural economy, as well as local processes such as civil war (which constrained the agricultural frontier), structural adjustment policies, and agrarian reform.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
