SUMMARY:

This Research explores the collective territorial transformations that are occurring in Brazil as reflected in the growth of ago mineral extractivist activities and how these are entangled with the contemporary capitalist dynamic driven by financialization.  More particularly, we will analyze the value chain related with grains and the specific projects and strategies of hegemonic global players to understand the linkages between the consolidation of the North of the state of Mato Grosso, as the center of the soja production in the country, and the emerging transformations and tensions in the agricultural frontier towards the North, into the direction of the Amazon forest. We will analyze logistics through a critical perspective, as a form of capitalist power in its double dimension, that is, as production chains in the operation of accumulation strategies as well as the material basis for flows and infrastructures, which are being transformed into assets in the context of financialization. In this way, the research will contribute to increase our understanding of the process of spatial restructuring in the periphery oft the capitalist system.
