More about the book
Focusing on the interplay between development and space, this book explores how specific environments become sites for intervention and conflict. Through a case study on an environment-development project addressing desertification in Patagonia, it examines the renegotiation of spatial practices and meanings, highlighting the roles of stakeholders and the dynamics of protest from indigenous organizations. The innovative methodology encourages readers to trace the boundaries of development, both conceptually and materially, revealing the complexities of place-making and resistance.
