This book is the result of the collaborative research project Environmental Governance in Latin America (ENGOV) funded by the European
Union (EU). For four years, a team of experts from ten Latin American
and European academic institutions investigated how environmental governance is currently being shaped in Latin America. In this
joint effort, we were driven by our concerns about widespread ecological degradation, poverty and injustice, as well as by our curiosity
about the ways in which the emergence of new political regimes and
elites, and innovative steps by communities and social organizations,
affects governance practices and nature–society relations. To understand the possibilities and obstacles for sustainable and equitable natural
resource use, a range of case-studies were carried out in Argentina, Chile,
Uruguay, Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, El Salvador, Costa
Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala and Mexico. Although some of the research
topics and cases are not included in this volume, their findings have
contributed to the discussions and theoretical reflections in the overall
analysis.
