Estudio del conflicto del Sahara Occidental desde la perspectiva de la Economía Ecológica

Abstract

[EN] In the following end-of-degree work, the environmental problems caused by our economic system are studied alongside the Western Sahara’s conflict, the Sahrawi population vital circumstances and the exploitation of the Sahara’s resources. In the first part, the reader is informed about the ecological economics and its sustainability based on an interactive order between the economic and ecological system, and how it rejects the GDP as an indicator of welfare. The final observations on this section speak about the economy for the common good of Christian Felber and the importance that the constitution of Ecuador gives to the nature. The second part, on the other hand, deals with the Western Sahara’s conflict, and how the struggle over the control of its natural resources has caused a conflict of such a magnitude. The German ecological model is also mentioned.
