The essay explores the political values materialized by the landscape for the Ikoots indigenous population of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (Oaxaca, México) in the context of the socio-environmental conflicts triggered by the installation of mega wind farms in the region. These large-scale wind farms, in addition to advancing through aggressive land grabbing, are also causing a kind of 'landscape grabbing', that is a radical and abrupt transformation of the landscape that seems to endanger indigenous self-determination in a more radical and sneaky way than ever before.

Abstract
The essay explores the political values materialized by the landscape for the Ikoots indigenous population of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (Oaxaca, México) in the context of the socio-environmental conflicts triggered by the installation of mega wind farms in the region. These large-scale wind farms, in addition to advancing through aggressive land grabbing, are also causing a kind of 'landscape grabbing', that is a radical and abrupt transformation of the landscape that seems to endanger indigenous self-determination in a more radical and sneaky way than ever before.File in questo prodotto:
