The
description/explanation of the session
The amplification of the
effects of the capitalist global crisis in Our America demonstrates,
between other forms, across the intensification of the processes of
private transnational and national appropriation of the common
natural goods. These processes suppose the increase of the schemes of
private transnational resettling with the consistent sequel of
“de-democratisation” of the social and political relations in the
region. Opposite to the extractive offensive that seals the
development of the crisis in Latin America the increasing rejection
of peoples and communities expresses in the increase of the
environmental conflicts in all the countries of the region. The
fights in defense of the water and of the soils constitute today one
of the most dynamic manifestations, though not exclusive, of these
processes. Our exhibition has for aim do a brief presentation of
these experiences, of the subjects and more emblematic carrying
movements of the resistances and of the processes of convergence of
the fights concerning the defense of the common goods and of the
life.
The anticipated
duration of the session: maximum 25 minutes
