Banning Mining in Guatemala
Author: Raquel E. Aldana
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 59
Book Description
Metal mining is unsustainable for Guatemala and its harms insurmountable for its people. Guatemalans who oppose mining have been fighting for decades domestically and internationally against the environmental degradation and other human rights abuses from mining activities in the country with little to show for their efforts. The State is too weak and corrupt to offer much hope for reform. Guatemala requires extensive governance reforms to become the type of strong democracy capable of reaping the potential benefits of metal mining in its territory. This is a long-term project. Most Guatemalans opposed to mining already know this, and the struggle is largely to ban all metal mining in the country. The prospect of a ban is elusive, however, largely because of potential liability the country may face from the investors affected by the ban. This article presents the best case for a ban on metal mining while exploring alternatives to minimize the investor liability costs to the country. First, the article recommends that Guatemala exercise its sovereign right to adopt a law banning all future metal mining concessions. Second Guatemala should rely on existing domestic laws to close the mines to mitigate the substantial damages resulting from these activities. Under either approach, Guatemala is likely to face investor liability in the millions, and perhaps lose future investment in the country. This article offers Guatemala suggestions for defending and mitigating these costs by relying on comparative studies of similar actions taken by Costa Rica and El Salvador.
