INSUASTY RODRIGUEZ, Alfonso; GRISALES, Daniel  y  GUTIERREZ LEON, Eliana Marcela. CONFLICTS ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE-SCALE MINING IN ANTIOQUIA. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2013, vol.13, n.2, pp.371-397. ISSN 1657-8031.

This article is the first production of a piece of research: "Conflicts over the territory associated with large-scale mining in Antioquia, Colombia." It presents the conclusions of the first phase, which gives an account of the extractive economic dynamics that Colombia has been taking in the last 10 years, as a strategic route that responds to the needs of the availability of low-cost natural resources, demanded by the current crisis of the international capital. These decisions favor foreign interests, which involve and jeopardize the cultural logics, autonomy, sovereignty, life, dignity and the natural environment of the inhabitants of the territories of interest to the development of these large natural resources extraction projects.

Palabras clave : Resource; Global Crisis; Defense of the territory.
