Abstract

type="main" xml:lang="es"> Resumen . Este artículo examina el impacto socio-económico en las comunidades locales de la extracción de recursos minerales y agrícolas y explora las opciones políticas para afrontarlos. El énfasis en la mercantilización de los servicios, junto con un control fiscal estricto ha reforzado el declive de muchas comunidades rurales de Australia y de otros lugares. Sin embargo, la introducción por la Unión Europea de una política regional que hace hincapié en una ‘especialización inteligente’ puede mejorar en gran medida la capacidad de las poblaciones locales para generar medios de vida decentes. Para que esto tenga un efecto real, el estado innovador tiene que permitir la formación de consorcios entre las comunidades, los investigadores y la industria. En países como Australia, esto supondría un cambio político sustancial.
