Oil Conflict in Ecuador

A Photographic Essay

Patricia Widener

Florida Atlantic University

This article has three purposes. First, the photographs and text narrate the diverse and persistent mobilization efforts against the oil sector operating in the Amazon region of Ecuador. Second, the study explores limitations of resistance networks composed of Northern environmental and Ecuadorian domestic groups. These networks tend to target Northern oil multinationals while overlooking the increasing interest and influence of Asian oil firms in the Amazon. Third, the article is aimed at showing how photography can complement interviewing in field research and how it can be of methodological interest to environmental social scientists in the complex way it defines the role of the researcher.

Key Words: pollution • environmental conflict • oil industry • labor environmentalism • indigenous communities • environmental justice groups • environmental NGOs
