LORENZO, Cristian y BUENO, María del Pilar. Nature Conservation in North-South Relations: Payment for Ecosystem Services. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2020, n.71, pp.40-50. ISSN 0123-885X. https://doi.org/10.7440/res71.2020.04.
This paper analyzes the trajectories of payment for ecosystem services (PES) from the 1990s to the present, with an emphasis on Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). It is concluded that these trajectories were configuring a strategy for nature conservation within the framework of North-South relations within the international system. It emerged in academic-scientific institutions in the United States, and was subsequently projected at the multilateral level through the Global Millennium Ecosystem Report, published in 2005. In Latin America and the Caribbean, a technical and political discussion developed on the possibility of measuring nature and assigning it an economic value, and cases were implemented that legitimized the PES proposal with external financing.
