Disputed perspectives, beyond common sense

The text PERSPECTIVES IN DISPUTE, BEYOND COMMON SENSE - Socio-cultural and environmental realities in the province and city of Esmeraldas, makes an x-ray from the social, cultural, environmental point of view of the province and city of Esmeraldas; gathering opinions from the academic community, public and private departments, community leaders and social actors. Before the partial attention of the Central State and Local Governments, the civil society reproduces agenciamientos in each of its territorial contexts, thus establishing socio-community policies for the benefit of its own inhabitants. Finally, the perceptions argued in the text show a continuous dispute of the authorities for power, but at the same time, the use of abuse against the local society.
