Abstract

El papel que cumple el sector extractivo en la economía ha sido un tema de amplio debate. Este artículo analiza el crecimiento de la inversión canadiense en Colombia, particularmente hacia las actividades extractivas. Los resultados indican que el incremento en los últimos anos de la explotación de carbón, petróleo y oro, entre otros, ha generado consecuencias negativas en la economía nacional, el medioambiente, la salud y vulneración de derechos humanos y laborales, e incluso las empresas canadienses, suscritas bajo un acuerdo de ética y responsabilidad en el Tratado de Libre Comercio entre Colombia-Canadá, han estado en el centro de la crítica.
