Resumen
LEAL, CLAUDIA. CONFLICTS OVER MINES AND VEGETABLE IVORY: NATURAL RESOURCES AND TERRITORIAL PROPERTY RIGHTS IN THE PACIFIC LOWLANDS OF COLOMBIA, 1870-1930. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2008, vol.44, n.2, pp.409-438. ISSN 0486-6525.
At the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century, the Pacific lowlands of Colombia diverged from national trends: local conflicts did not center on land, but on the access to vegetable ivory, gold and platinum. By studying these conflicts, this article helps explain why much of the land in this region was not titled at the time when land titling took off in other parts of the country. In this way, the article helps us understand the particular history of the Pacific lowlands, which allowed the rural population to gain title to communal land as defined by the 1991 Constitution
