Abstract

This paper aims to carry out an analysis about the multiple impacts that business projects of Spanish electrical multinational Iberdrola are generating in Brazil. The methodology is based on the collection of documents from various sources (public and business institutions, researchers, social movements), and interviews with various social actors (affected, academics, technical...). The most important impacts are related to the loss of sovereignty, the commodification of public services, the practice of lobbying, corruption, social criminalization, job insecurity and violation of rights of indigenous peoples.
