This volume provides a transdisciplinary analysis of the political, social and environmental aspects of governance and its implementation in the mining sector.
In a world profoundly shaped by the energy transition and the urgency of climate change, mining faces a dual challenge. On one hand, it is expected to play a crucial role in the shift toward a more sustainable socioeconomic model. On the other, it operates within a context marked by deep economic, social, political, and environmental tensions across multiple territories. This book offers a critical, transdisciplinary, and rigorous exploration of a key concept for understanding this dilemma: governance. Through a theoretical and practical journey—ranging from colonial extractivism to current models of sustainability and corporate responsibility—it provides a comprehensive look at how formal and informal power structures, community relations, social and environmental impact assessments, and regulatory frameworks shape the present and future of mining. With a participatory approach that brings together voices from academia, government, NGOs, and the private sector, the book not only analyzes the various dimensions of mining governance but also presents practical examples and case studies to better understand its sociopolitical, environmental, and economic complexity. From the role of the Social License to Operate to mine closure and post-closure planning, and waste management, this work invites readers to rethink mining as a long-term territorial development project.
This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of the mining and extractive industries, natural resource governance, environmental governance and sustainable development.
