    Introduction: Resource peripheries in the global economy
    (Springer Nature, 2021) Irarrázaval Irarrázaval, Felipe Andres; Arias Loyola, Martín
    The relation between resource extraction and the places in which extraction takes place has been a long-standing issue for academic, social and political debates. The paths through which resource extraction alter developmental dynamics, the everyday life of the local population and the environmental context have called the attention of social science since its origins. Despite the long-standing dimensions, which have been in the spotlight, contemporary political, economic and social changes demand revising the way in which resource extraction connects global production with the places where extraction occurs, here referred to as resource peripheries. This introduction critically revisits the academic debate about resource peripheries, asking to move forward from an understanding of resource peripheries as local models, towards a dynamic approach that allows grasping the socio-spatial relations that make the extraction places peripheral. For doing so, this section proposes three core dimensions that must be revisited in the research about resource peripheries: (i) changes in how contemporary capitalism is organizing production through globalized value chains; (ii) the re-scalation of political dynamics, which shape the economic organization of the places of extraction; and (iii) emergent issues, such as long-distance commuting, climate change and human rights

    Resource Peripheries in the Global Economy: Networks, Scales and Places of Extraction
    (Springer Nature, 2021) Irarrázaval Irarrázaval, Felipe; Arias-Loyola, Martín; Ciccantell, Paul S.; Scholvin, Sören; Dodge, Alexander; Martinus, Kirsten; Loginova, Julia; Sigler, Thomas; Kotilainen, Juha; Giraudo, Maria Eugenia; Watts, Michael John; Bustos, Beatriz; Ramírez, María Inés; Rudolf, Marco; Atienza, Miguel; Irarrázaval Irarrázaval, Felipe; Arias-Loyola, Martín
    This book discusses the conditions that underpin configuration of specific places as resource peripheries and the consequences that such a socio-spatial formation involves for those places. The book thereby provides an interdisciplinary approach underpinned by economic geography, political ecology, resource geography, development studies and political geography. It also discusses the different technological, political and economic changes that make the ongoing production of resource peripheries a distinctive socio-spatial formation under the global economy. Through a global and interdisciplinary perspective that uncovers ongoing political processes, socio-economic changes and socio-ecological dynamics at resource peripheries, this book argues that it is critical to take a more profound appraisal about the socio-spatial processes behind the contemporary way in which capitalism is appropriating and transforming nature.
