ESCOBAR GARCIA, Natalia. Gold is not always gold: Bahía Málaga, touristification strategies in the Colombian pacific. Investig. desarro. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.2, pp.34-60. ISSN 0121-3261. https://doi.org/10.14482/indes.25.2.10958.
This article discusses how black communities in the Colombian Pacific appropriated concepts about environment and development, which many a times are under the lens of the economic interests of politicians, businessmen and members of the communities themselves. The methodological approach of this study privileges ethnography and fieldwork, which are two key tools to know about the daily life of the communities' social realities presented here. These concepts serve to account the current debate on the question about conserving environmental resources or betting on an idea of development based on neoliberal policies embedded in the Colombian Constitution of 1991 and the new national political order. Nevertheless, communities show that such debates are not necessarily exclusionary.
