| Sumario: | In Ecuador and Peru the contact between isolated indigenous groups and outsiders have increased. At least in the recent past, these contacts have occurred as a result of oil exploration that was carried out in many areas in the Amazon region. However, it is a mistake to consider the companies as principal protagonists of the problems that have arisen in many areas of the Amazon Basin. On the contrary, we will analyze the issue of contact from the perspective of the “resource curse”, that is to say, as a consequence of a system created by national elites to appropriate the oil wealth “without the citizen consent”. In this system the oil companies -private or public- work as agents or accomplices principally, but rarely as protagonists of extractivist policies. Also, we document the reduced role of the oil industry in the isolated groups’ territory, especially in Peru where this groups have to face grave dangers such as the criminal logging, coca and gold business. |
