Resumen
MORA, Sol. Social Resistance to the Infrastructure Cooperation with China: The Case of the Kirchner-Cepernic Dams in Argentina. colomb.int. [online]. 2018, n.94, pp.53-81. ISSN 0121-5612. https://doi.org/10.7440/colombiaint94.2018.03.
This article presents an inquiry about the socio-environmental characteristics and implications of the intervention of China in the infrastructure cooperation in Latin America. In order to characterize the intervention, this article showcases an analysis of ideas and actions of social resistance to the cooperation initiatives in the framework of a case study of the socio-environmental conflict in the Hydroelectric Complex Kirchner-Cepernic in Argentina. Using the Neo-Gramscian perspective presented by Robert Cox and the categories of Latin American Political Ecology, it is argued that the resistance initiatives expose the power relations at material, discursive and institutional level that influence the project. These power relations reproduce the patterns of natural exploitation in the North, which have been characterised by environmental inequality.
