Land of the Unexpected: Natural Resource Conflict and Peace Building in Papua New Guinea

Abstract: Papua New Guinea (PNG) has long been a site of analysis for exploring the links between natural resources and conflict, having been cited as an example in prominent studies of the "natural resource curse" and used as a source of learning in international debates on corporate social responsibility (CSR). Over the past decade, this scholarship has expanded to encompass conflict analysis and peace building. This paper considers four themes identified in the contemporary literature, each with reference to examples… Show more

“…For instance, the extractive industry—oil, natural gas and mining – relies on access to deposits of the resources they are extracting. Companies cannot choose where these resources are located, but only which resources to extract (Feil et al , 2008; McKenna, 2016; Wegenast, 2016). This fact makes their ability to disengage from a country in which violence is occurring relatively limited.…”

“…Debido a que la violencia aconteció en territorios o áreas geográficas específicas, sus efectos tienen un impacto directo en el medio ambiente y la naturaleza (Bedoya, 2017;Hönke, 2014;Mckenna, 2014Mckenna, , 2016Molina, 2004;Prandi y Lozano, 2010), lo que a su vez afecta las condicio-nes de vida de las poblaciones y especies vegetales y animales. Este es el caso de la contaminación de los recursos hídricos, la transformación de los ecosistemas y la destrucción de las tierras para las actividades agrícolas (Jiménez-Bautista, 2012;Prandi y Lozano, 2010).…”

“…Este es el caso de la contaminación de los recursos hídricos, la transformación de los ecosistemas y la destrucción de las tierras para las actividades agrícolas (Jiménez-Bautista, 2012;Prandi y Lozano, 2010). No obstante, la literatura académica es escasa sobre las prácticas de RSE orientadas a la reparación del daño del medio ambiente y su protección, esta dimensión solo se involucra cuando se hace mención a los derechos humanos, con la idea de aumentar la consciencia de conservar el medio ambiente (Buitrago et al, 2015;Mckenna, 2014Mckenna, , 2016Prandi y Lozano, 2010).…”
