description | The authors identify five types of environmentalism currently visible in mining conflicts in Peru. These are: conservationist, nationalist-populist, livelihood based, environmental justice, and deep ecological. This article suggests that different environmentalisms lead to different ways out of existing conflicts: some of these emphasize practices of compensation while others suggest the need for open and frank public debate. This second pathway would promote democratic strengthening. Historical experience suggests that many of the institutions of the welfare state have emerged as a consequence of social conflict. In this sense, conflicts can be seen not as problems that have to be resolved quickly but rather as motors that drive institutional transformations. |

Este artículo identifica cinco tipos de ambientalismos que están presentes en los conflictos mineros en el Perú: el conservacionista, el nacionalista-populista, el de defensa de las formas de vida, el de justicia socio-ambiental y el ecologismo profundo. Se sugiere que cada ambientalismo conlleva diferentes salidas a los conflictos ambientales: la compensación en unos casos o el debate público abierto y franco ean otros. Es esta segunda salida la que promovería un fortalecimiento de la democracia.
