“…In many countries, the reliance on rents has demotivated productive investment in the broader economy and limited economic diversification (e.g. Beblawi, 1987;Karl, 1997;Ross, 2016;Savoia and Sen, 2021). Reliance on rents will tend to be selfreinforcing; as the large amounts of 'unearned income' provides little incentive to invest in economic diversification, which implies that the composition of revenue comprising a heavy reliance on rents is maintained, if not exacerbated in the future (Ross, 2016).…”

This paper contributes to the debate on domestic revenue mobilization and state-building in the Global South by exploring the concept of fiscal states and the common assumption that such states are present in sub-Saharan Africa. We systematically review the diverse understandings of the fiscal state across relevant literatures to revisit its conceptualization. On that basis, we define the fiscal state as a state whose public revenue base is dominated by tax revenue and loans, and where the relationship between taxation and external and domestic borrowing is balanced and thereby sustainable and characterized by interdependence. We distinguish the fiscal state conceptually from the tax, debt, and rentier states and present a typology of these ideal state types, discussing illustrative empirical examples of different states in sub-Saharan Africa. These illustrate that not all sub-Saharan states can be categorized as fiscal states. This is important because when African states are regarded as fiscal states, assumptions are made about their economic structures; yet, to the extent that these are absent, fiscal policy reforms are unlikely to carry long-term positive effects.

“…Even if it is to generate surplus profits, the people must get the maximum benefit from the profits resulting from the mining process. The importance of the provisions of Article 33 paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia in mining management is relevant to Mubyarto's view that to run the wheels of the national SAS, 29(3) 2023: 442 -453 P-ISSN: 1693-0061, E-ISSN: 2614-2961 economy, the provisions of Article 33 paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia are like an "ideology" in the national economy. 17 Mutatis-mutandis with these economic aspects, then in actual mining management Article 33 paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia also becomes an "ideology" in determining mining policies initiated by the state.…”

Introduction: Principle of the people's authoritative manifestation in mining activities must be a reference and guide by the state in formulating policies related to mining management.Purposes of the Research: This study aims to construct the people's authoritative manifestation principle in mining management. In addition, this study also focuses on an inclusive legal perspective and uses comparisons with Brazil and the United States.Methods of the Research: This research is normative legal research with the approaches used conceptual, comparative, and statutory approaches.Results of the Research: The study results confirm that the efforts to actualize the principle of authoritative manifestation of the people in an inclusive legal perspective can be carried out with an integrated mining licensing system that takes into account the aspirations and input of the community, the need for community participation and involvement in every mining management activity, and the need for protection and empowerment, especially for communities around mining and in particular again to customary law communities who have local wisdom to manage local resources in their area so that their existence is maintained even though there is mining activity.

“…Pese a ello, fue Alberto Acosta, colaborador habitual de Gudynas, quien inició el despliegue conceptual del extractivismo identificándolo con un modelo de acumulación histórica, basado en una estrategia de desarrollo dependiente primario-exportadora que conduce inexorablemente a la maldición de los recursos, o maldición de la abundancia, como prefiere denominarla este autor (Schuldt y Acosta, 2006;Acosta 2009;2011a;. Acosta (2016) considera dicha maldición un hecho irrefutable a partir de una lectura sesgada de Prebisch -quien, al contrario, habló de "saber extraer" (Domínguez et al, 2019: 31)-y por el sencillo expediente de ignorar la prolífica literatura internacional que cuestiona la tesis de la maldición de los recursos (Badeeb, Lean y Clark, 2017;Amiri et al, 2019;Savoia y Sen, 2020).…”

Resumen: El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el despliegue y contenido conceptual del extractivismo desde su origen como modo de apropiación de los recursos naturales, estrategia de desarrollo dependiente y estilo de desarrollo insostenible, hasta llegar al rango de categoría para el análisis histórico de los procesos de acumulación por desposesión/apropiación que ha alcanzado en la actualidad y que lo convierten en ingrediente central del capitalismo y su ecología-mundo. La hipótesis, comprobada tras el análisis de la literatura, es que la genealogía marxista del extractivismo ha permitido esa ampliación de la cobertura analítica del concepto contra la intención original de su creador (Eduardo Gudynas). La conclusión del trabajo apela a reconstruir un Ruy Mauro Marini ecológico, mediante la integración de las teorías estructuralista y marxista de la dependencia en el marco de la súper-explotación del trabajo y la sobreexplotación de la naturaleza procedente de la tradición del marxismo ecológico en sus variantes latinoamericana y de la ecología-mundo.
