"The continent's most violent country" is a phrase used in BBC News this week.
In this episode, my guest scholar, Dr. Carmen Martinez Novo, takes us through the history of Ecuador's indigenous peoples and their struggles for equal rights and environmental rights, including an almost three-decade lawsuit against Chevron (initially Texaco). Of course, in this conversation, Dr. Martinez Novo will peel the history behind Ecuador's current state of violence - unprecedented for once a peaceful country.
Dr. Martinez Novo is the author of Undoing Multiculturalism: Resource Extraction and Indigenous Rights in Ecuador (2021), which we discuss in this episode.
And here is my conversation with Dr. Claudio Fuentes about Chile's modern history: https://bit.ly/HbN-S2E38s
