MASSA-SANCHEZ, Priscilla; CISNE ARCOS, Rosa del y MALDONADO, Daniel. Large-Scale Mining and Social Conflicts: Analysis of Southern Ecuador. Prob. Des [online]. 2018, vol.49, n.194, pp.119-141. ISSN 0301-7036. https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2018.194.63175.
This research analyzes how the mining law has performed with respect to large-scale mining projects, looking at the Mirador project as a case study. Specifically, we delve into citizen participation and land tenure during the project execution phase. The information we use was taken from the literature, as well as from interviews given to the inhabitants of the zone directly influenced by the project, and semi-structured interviews with key informants and community leaders. The main results point to the existence of social conflicts and discontent among the settlers, as they seem not to be taken into account in decision-making processes.
