Emerging Territorial Tensions in the Configuration of Productive Landscapes in the Southwest of Antioquia, Colombia
Abstract
Based on the productive landscape configuration in the southwest of Antioquia (Colombia), this article discusses the way in which the mid-course of the Cauca river has been transformed into an axis of economic intervention. Practices of development such as economic growth and neoliberalism policies dominate and dispute the local ways of life. Through ethnographic work and analysis of thematic cartography, the article examines how the geographic expansion of capitalism produces dispossession and confinement, at the same time new subjectivities and ways of social mobilization are configured.
