The interdisciplinary reflection on socio-environmental conflicts or known as anti-mining activity in the country, is relevant from the point of view of the importance of the national economy and its relationship with extractive activities in the country. The analysis of the problem from different epistemological perspectives, interpretative or hermeneutics, allows to increase the comprehension and possibilities of solution of socio-environmental conflicts. The issue gained importance when it became apparent in the facts that socio-environmental conflicts have the capacity of political incidence to stop important mining projects, in the context of an increase in investments in mining projects in the years 1995-2012. the theme and the case study of the failed Conga mining project in the Cajamarca region (2012), will validate the importance of a novel interpretative analytical approach fro...

Demuestra la hipótesis de que el estudio del conflicto minero Conga, a manera de estudio de caso, revela que en el contexto del conflicto, los discursos y argumentos utilizados por los tres sectores involucrados, demuestran que el tema central de diferencias y tensiones es de corte biopolítico. Las diferencias giran en torno a una premisa implícita biopolítica, a saber la defensa y conservación de la vida. Para confirmar esta hipótesis de trabajo, utilizaremos como marco teórico, la propuesta conceptual del desarrollo histórico del estado liberal biopolítico, es decir un estado que desarrolla políticas públicas que demuestran una preocupación por desarrollar la conservación, seguridad, preservación y promoción de la vida. Sin dejar de tomar en cuenta el interés histórico del liberalismo político y económico, de promover la ciudadanía y democracia y el desarrollo del c...

El capitalismo en el Perú a finales del siglo XX e inicios del XXI. Con el incremento importante y progresivo de las inversiones mineras a partir de aproximadamente la segunda mitad de la década de 1990, el Perú reingresa a un capitalismo y democracia liberal de corte moderno neoliberal y biopolítico. Existe actualmente una legislación peruana en relación a temas de seguridad, salud ocupacional, responsabilidad ambiental. Los Estudios de Impacto Ambiental (EIA), Declaración de Impacto ambiental (DIA), etc. demuestran la voluntad de la política del estado peruano de incorporarse a la preocupación de responsabilidad social y cuidado ambiental a nivel mundial. Se afirma que se trata de la idea moderna del crecimiento económico acompañado de desarrollo social sostenible. Por otro lado, la promoción de derechos humanos y de la democracia representativa liberal, ha permitido que la...

Geoethics is based on community relation with geoscientist (Amiry & Bohle, 2017). Nevertheless, there are many cases, such as Africa where communities do not concern about geoscience activities because they got not involved before the projects started, a similar situation happened was found in Peru with mining activities. At the beginning of 2014, the Peruvian Section of IAPG (IAPG-Peru) started to share the principles of the IAPG (Peppoloni & Di Capua, 2012). IAPG provides knowledge for ethical work around Geoscience, for their development and successful application (Di Capua et al., 2016). In this sense, IAPG-Peru has gained a great rating with an arduous work of its committee with the support of IAPG and national entities as the Peruvian Geological Society and the Peruvian Geological Survey. During summer 2017, in Peru occurred extreme meteorological events with negative effects on Pe...
