Resumen

Los pagos por servicios ambientales (PSA) son fuertemente criticados por académicos de ecología política. Predominantemente, sus críticas se basan en nociones de justicia distributiva, que se centran en el impacto negativo (por ejemplo, la distribución de los derechos sobre la tierra) del PSA a las comunidades indígenas y locales. Muchos partidarios liberales del PSA no niegan que tales problemas sean reales. Sin embargo, ponen más énfasis en la justicia procesal y afirman que el PSA puede desencadenar una institucionalización de diálogos más inclusivos. Hasta el momento, ambas ramas de la literatura subestiman el impacto de las condiciones poscoloniales en las que se ubican muchos proyectos de PSA. Aquí es donde entra nuestro artículo. Investigamos la política inicial de PSA en Mato Grosso do Sul, una provincia brasileña dominada por un continuo colonialismo de asentamiento. Los resultados de nuestra investigación indican que la implementación de procedimientos inclusivos en los proyectos de PSA puede mitigar parcialmente las consecuencias del colonialismo de asentamiento en curso, pero esto a menudo falla porque está incrustado en las estructuras de una economía política colonial. Si bien el PSA ocasionalmente empodera a los actores indígenas para dirigirse a las élites locales de manera más efectiva y fortalecer los derechos de las mujeres indígenas, es probable que las transformaciones resultantes dentro de las comunidades debiliten su auto-organización política.
