风能在农村地区的扩张与地方层面的各种利益相互作用，在社区内产生多种反应。墨西哥的Eólica del Sur风电场实施路径是-à-vis该行业不同立场的典范，自2006年以来，墨西哥在其他城镇安装了132台风力涡轮机。这篇论文认为，在风能发展的政治研究中存在一种偏向于支持反对声音的偏见，而不是支持风能扩张或在该部门拥有股份但既不支持也不反对风能项目本身的团体。基于三年多的实地调查和对Eólica del Sur利益相关者的半结构化访谈，本文认为，对风能的不同反应与该地区土地所有权主张的对比以及应该使这些主张合法化的制度的相互竞争的概念有关。
Wind energy expansion across rural areas interacts with various interests at the local level, generating multiple reactions within communities. The Eólica del Sur wind farm implementation pathway in Mexico is a paragon of different positions vis-à-vis this industry after trying to install 132 wind turbines in other towns since 2006. This paper argues that there is a bias in studies of the politics of wind energy development in favour of oppositional voices, as opposed to groups that endorse wind energy expansion or that have stakes in the sector but neither support nor oppose wind projects per se. Based on fieldwork conducted over three years and semi-structured interviews with Eólica del Sur stakeholders, the paper argues that different responses to wind energy are linked to contrasting ownership claims over land in the region and competing notions of the institutions that should legitimize these claims.
