US Investors Are Pillaging Honduras | Guillaume Long | TMR

Live-streamed on February 8, 2024 Guillaume Long, former foreign minister of Ecuador and Senior Research Fellow at the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR), discusses his recent piece published Foreign Policy entitled “How a Start-Up Utopia Became a Nightmare for Honduras.”   / guillaumelong   https://cepr.net/ https://foreignpolicy.com/2024/01/24/... Guillaume Long then runs through a brief explanation of the evolution of Honduran politics in the wake of the 2009 US-supported coup and the decade of authoritarianism that followed, before stepping back to walk through the parallel rise of Honduras’ ZEDEs – special economic development zones that offer near-complete autonomy to corporations over swaths of Honduran territory – despite large backlash from the Honduran public and legal world. After parsing through some of the details of Honduras’ major ZEDEs, and the central role the issue played in the election of leftist Xiomara Castro in 2021, Long walks Emma through the growing efforts against the abuses of corporations, the Western-backed private court that is pushing back, and what to expect as this battle comes to a head.
