States in mineral-rich jurisdictions promote mining as a
development industry, and at the same time attempt to protect
people and the environment from the worst excesses of extractivism
and neo-extractivism. Exploring how the State's role in
facilitating a developmental and sustainable mining industry has
been defined, this eminent work is a world-first analysis of the
principal narratives framing mining, development and sustainability
in developed and developing countries. Through a global,
comparative analysis, Tracy-Lynn Field illustrates how these themes
are woven into the technical governance areas of property,
taxation, environmental assessment and mine closure. Ultimately,
this book shows how the promotional and protective role of the
State constituted by the advocacy, policies and laws of
international financial institutions, industry associations,
activists, and mineral-rich jurisdictions supports an unsustainable
system of global mining production. Progressive in its approach,
the book concludes with insightful thoughts on the paradigm of
post-extractivism. State Governance of Mining, Development and
Sustainability is a must read for students and scholars interested
in the law and governance of mining and development, as well as
environmental law and governance more widely. Its practical
implications will also prove informative for practitioners and
policy makers working in the field.
