The struggle to expel the Navy from Vieques has been one of the few issues that unified Puerto Ricans of all political perspectives. Most observ e r s p o rtrayed the protest as a stru ggle for human rights or cultural nationalism. This essay argues that, in addition, it can be seen as a struggle for environmental justice. While this was partly true during the struggle¿s first stage, which ended in May 2003, this is especially true in analyzing the seco n d stage, for decontamination and development. Fi n a lly, adopting an environmental j u s t i ce fr a m ewo r k should not be seen as minimizing or localizing the s i g n i f i c a n ce of mobilization. Ra t h e r, contrary to some criticisms, environmental justice analyses can highlight injustices at the systemic level. |
