Following the Ciguapa explores the hidden environmental and human costs of development in the Dominican Republic through interconnected case studies on mining, energy, pollution, biodiversity, tourism and climate vulnerability. Grounded in the concept of the Ciguapa Paradox-inspired by the Dominican mythological figure whose reversed footprints mislead those who follow her path-the book argues that many forms of modern progress appear to move society forward while simultaneously producing ecological decline, public health crises and cultural loss. Blending environmental history, investigative storytelling and public analysis, this books offers a uniquely Dominican lens into the global tensions between development and sustainability.
