This volume investigates how mining affects societies and
communities in Mongolia and Kyrgyzstan. As ex-Soviet states,
Mongolia and Kyrgyzstan share history, culture and transitions to
democracy. Most importantly, both are mineral-rich countries on
China's frontier and epi-centres of resource extraction. This
volume examines challenges communities in these countries encounter
on the long journey through resource exploration, extraction and
mine closure. The book is organised into three related sections
that travel from mine licensing and instigation to early
anticipation of benefit through the realisation of social and
environmental impacts to finite issues such as jobs, monitoring,
dispute resolution and reclamation. Most originally, each chapter
will include a final section entitled "Notes from the field" that
presents the voice of in-country researchers and stakeholders.
These sections will provide local contextual knowledge on the
chapter's theme by practitioners from Mongolia and Central Asia.
The volume thereby offers a distinctively grounded perspective on
the tensions and benefits of mining in this dynamic region. Using
Mongolia and Kyrgyzstan as case studies, the volume reflects on the
evolving challenges communities and societies encounter with
resource extraction worldwide. The book will be of great interest
to students and scholars of mining and natural resource extraction,
corporate social responsibility and sustainable development.
