Reimagining Extractivism: Insights from Spatial Theory
Abstract
This chapter explores the spatial dynamics of extractivism beyond a state-centred analysis based on the dichotomy between resource-dependent and industrialised societies. Its aim is twofold: to outline the analytical biases and spatial omissions that the widespread Latin American literature on extractivism presents, and to lay the foundations for a framework that focuses on the significance of spatial categories for politico-ecological research on extractivism. Embedded in the field of political ecology as well as critical space theory, I aim to bring the scholarly imagination back to the task of exploring analytical categories in order to boost empirical research on the spatiality of extractivism and to gain a better understanding of the contentious politics of extractivism. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

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.
