FUENTE, Mario Enrique  e  BARKIN, David. Mining as a Development Factor in the Sierra Juárez in Oaxaca: An Ethical Evaluation. Prob. Des [online]. 2013, vol.44, n.172, pp.123-144. ISSN 0301-7036.

The Mexican government has justified granting mining concessions in indigenous territories as a strategy to promote development. This action, based on the theory of general competitive balance, ignores the ethical and environmental costs and implications. Given these limits, the article explores heterodox analytic fields and a concrete case: the Zapotec community in Sierra de Juárez, Oaxaca, Mexico, in the context mining concessions that have been granted in their territory. This research seeks to define the ethical debate on development and sustainability in territorial and political terms.

Palavras-chave : mining; ethics; sustainability; communality; Oaxaca.
