%X The concept of ¡°risk¡± is relatively new in sociological literature and arises in a more systematic way in Anthony Giddens and Ulrich Beck¡¯s works and it develops in alternative conceptualizations in various authors from which the ecofeminist , Vandana Shiva is recoverd here, . This article seeks to establish a link between Beck and Shiva¡¯s approaches to the conflicts arising from the idea of risk in the case of gold mining in Marmato, Caldas, through the specification of environmental risks produced by different ways of exploitation of that resource and the ideological positions of actors in the dispute.
