Paiement, Jason Jaques
- Abstract
In 2005, three major development and conservation projects were proposed in order to reorganize the Naso Territory in Bocas del Toro, Panama. This paper analyses the conflicts that involve several social, cultural and environmental representatives that organized around these three proposals in order to assess the equitable distribution of their impacts. It emphasizes the need for a more sophisticated analysis and calls for skepticism about the justifications given by the traditional authorities, governmental agencies and private businesses involved in the development and conservation projects of the natural resources on indigenous lands.
