La paradoja de la abundancia local: minería y bien-estar en riesgo. El caso de Zacatecas.

In Mexico, the State policy in favor of mining extractive -based on the idea that the exploitation of the subsoil will generate sufficient resources to achieve well-being and progress- has caused irreparable environmental damage to the mining populations, generating a paradox of abundance at the local level. This situation is analyzed here in economic, social, and environmental terms in the mining community of Valdecañas, in Fresnillo, Zacatecas; corroborating the environmental impact of mining, the scarce resources it generates for the economy, and the risk it has on the well-being and health of people.
