The growing demand for gold, resulting from the recent global financial crisis, has led actors to engage with new spatial formats and to transform the spatial order in gold-producing countries as they adjust to new market conditions. Extractive enclaves compete with other spatial formats such as chiefdoms, nation states, and transnational organizations. We hypothesize that the power of African actors to powerfully shape this process and regulate the globally organized capital has increased. They act in varied ways by mobilizing globally circulating ideas concerning development, resource management, and rights; strategically networking with transnationally active organizations; or resorting to violence on the ground. This anthropological project comparatively studies these processes in Mali and Burkina Faso.

最近的全球金融危机导致对黄金的需求不断增长，导致行为者采用新的空间模式，并在适应新的市场条件时改变黄金生产国的空间秩序。采掘飞地与其他空间形式竞争，如酋长领地、民族国家和跨国组织。我们假设，非洲行为者强有力地塑造这一进程并监管全球有组织的资本的力量已经增加。它们采取不同的行动方式，动员有关发展、资源管理和权利的全球流通思想；与跨国活跃的组织建立战略网络；或在实地诉诸暴力。这个人类学项目比较研究了马里和布基纳法索的这些过程。
