MORALES RAMIREZ, Dionicio; ALVARADO LAGUNAS, Elías; PICAZZO PALENCIA, Esteban e TOBIAS JARAMILLO, Ricardo. Local Perceptions of Hydrocarbon Exploitation Operations in the Northeastern Region of Mexico. Frontera norte [online]. 2018, vol.30, n.60, pp.111-130. ISSN 2594-0260. https://doi.org/10.17428/rfn.v30i60.1139.
This work studies the perceptions of the inhabitants of the Burgos Basin about the exploitation of hydrocarbons in that region in Mexico’s northeast. It uses a sample of 1 549 people and a logistic regression model for the analysis. The results show that 90.7 percent of the people who perceive an effect associate it with something negative. The findings also show that access to means of communication, and information about the issue, have an effect on the formation of perceptions. Because of insecurity in the localities, the survey was not carried out in a random and systematic way. Still, this study, utilizing a little-used approach in Mexico, shows the perceptions, and the driving factors behind them, that inhabitants have about the extractive operations that take place in the region.
