在过去15年中，许多发展中国家的采矿活动急剧增长。本文回顾了这些最近的趋势，并描述了它们引发的争论和冲突。作者回顾了关于资源诅咒和以开采为主导的发展途径的可能性的辩论的证据。然后，他们描述了不同类型的抵抗和社会动员，迎接矿产扩张在一系列的地理范围，并考虑到这些抗议活动在多大程度上改变了采矿和政治经济变化之间的关系。结论讨论了此类抗议活动可能在多大程度上有助于“摆脱”资源诅咒，并考虑了对研究和政策议程的影响。
The last decade and a half has witnessed a dramatic growth in mining activity in many developing countries. This article reviews these recent trends and describes the debates and conflicts they have triggered. The authors review evidence regarding debates on the resource curse and the possibility of an extraction-led pathway to development. They then describe the different types of resistance and social mobilization that have greeted mineral expansion at a range of geographical scales, and consider how far these protests have changed the relationships between mining and political economic change. The conclusions address how far such protests might contribute to an 'escape' from the resource curse, and consider implications for research and policy agendas.
