Item description from seller

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2024 in the subject Geography / Earth Science - Economic Geography, grade: 1,3, University of Cologne (Wirtschafts- und Sozialgeographisches Institut), course: Regional Policies and Sustainability, language: English, abstract: The industrialization of Bolivia's lithium reserves, initiated in 2008, represents a pivotal moment in the country's economic and social development. This paper explores the nexus between Bolivia's lithium extraction policies and the concept of neo-extractivism (NE), which scrutinizes the resource extraction strategies of progressive governments. Drawing on qualitative process-tracing methodology, the study investigates whether Bolivia's lithium policies align with or diverge from the principles of NE. By reviewing literature on extractivism and NE, five defining hallmarks of NE are elucidated, alongside an examination of NE's relationship with sustainability. Analyzing Bolivian lithium extraction policies through governmental sources and academic literature, the paper evaluates their adherence to NE criteria. Additionally, conceptual limitations of the NE framework are addressed through insights from the global lithium production network literature. The paper concludes with an assessment of the findings from a sustainability perspective, shedding light on the implications of Bolivia's lithium policies for its economic and environmental future. 20 pp. Englisch.
