      abstract = {What are the political economic conditions that have given  rise to increasing numbers of social environmental  conflicts in Mexico? Why do these conflicts arise in some  local and regional contexts and not in others? How are  social environmental movements constructed and sustained?  And what are the alternatives? These are the questions that  this book seeks to address. It is organized into three  parts. The first provides a panoramic view of social  environmental conflicts in Mexico and of alternatives that  are being constructed from below in rural areas. It also  provides an analysis of the recent reforms to open the  country's energy sector to private and foreign investment.  The second is comprised of local-level case studies of  conflict (and no conflict) in diverse geographic locations  and cultural settings, particularly in relation to the  construction of wind farms, hydraulic infrastructure,  industrial water pollution, and groundwater overdraft. The  third explores alternatives from below in the form of  community-based ecotourism and traditional mezcal  production. A concluding chapter engages comparative and  global analysis.--},
