The relationship between companies and local populations is a relevant issue for contemporary extractivism. Large mining companies face social conflicts and manage the relationship with the populations that occupy the surroundings of their projects, through policies of "social responsibility," "sustainability" or "ESG" (Environmental, Social, Governance). This article explores observable analogies between these business strategies and military strategies adopted in the doctrine formulated by the United States for occupation and stabilization operations. The objective is to understand the meaning of the forms of treatment assigned to the populations inhabiting the territories under control. The paper discusses literature on the subject and explores the contents of two manuals: one on stabilization operations of the Armed Forces and the other on Mine Engineering. It concludes, by highlighting the common elements between both practices, their authoritarian character and reflecting on the implications for the exercise of social critique of extractive capitalism.... view less

La relación entre empresas y poblaciones locales es un asunto relevante para el extractivismo contemporáneo. Las grandes empresas mineras enfrentan conflictos sociales y gestionan la relación con las poblaciones que ocupan el entorno de sus proyectos, mediante políticas de "responsabilidad social", "sustentabilidad" o "ESG" (Environmental, Social, Governance). Este artículo explora analogías observables entre estas estrategias empresariales y estrategias militares adoptadas en la doctrina formulada por los Estados Unidos para operaciones de ocupación y estabilización. El objetivo es comprender el significado de las formas de tratamiento asignadas a las poblaciones que habitan los territorios bajo control. El trabajo discute literatura sobre el tema y explora el contenido de dos manuales: uno de operaciones de estabilización de las Fuerzas Armadas y otro de Ingeniería de Minas. Concluye destacando los elementos comunes entre ambas prácticas, su carácter autoritario y reflexionando sobre las implicaciones para el ejercicio de la crítica social al capitalismo extractivo.... view less
