In the following text, we have articulated various fragments of a conversation grounded on Tom Perreault's personal experience and field research in our continent. We have linked them to the eventual dynamics of the conjuncture in recent history. From this perspective, issues such as the problematic and contradictory nature of diverse notions of justice are examined; they are addressed within the framework of the recent history of Bolivia and Ecuador from an environmental justice view. We have also dealt with the plot water’s nodal role of environmental justice, and the geopolitics of knowledge in the contemporary context of Latin America.
