Sumari: | The technical-scientific-informational period amplified the possibilities for
expansion and command of capitalist economic activities at a global level. In this
context, the modernization of the telecommunications and transport systems has
become the tools that enabled the increase of material and immaterial flows and
the widening of the territorial division of labor, in addition to the new role that
financialization and credit have taken on in the context of world economy.In
Brazil, this process intensifies since 1970, which made it possible to deepen the
territorial division of labor at a national level and to expand and emerge new
spatial production circuits. In this context, new forms of use of the territory in Rio
Grande do Norte were created by the hegemonic agents of the economy, in line
with the actions of the State. Therefore, a process of restructuring of its territory
and of the pre-existing economic activities was promoted, among them, the textile
industry of clothing and apparel, which started to be commanded by large
companies originated, mainly, in the Southeast of the country. Regarding
specifically the clothing sector, there is the configuration of a wide and diverse
spatial production circuit, in terms of agents, scales, networks and material and
immaterial flows. In this way, the thesis here defended starts from the premise
that, the diffusion of the technical-scientific-informational medium in Brazil and
the incentive policies to industrial development promoted by the State, expanded
and diversified the spatial circuit of clothing production in Rio Grande do Norte
from the increase in the flow of goods, the attraction of large external economic
groups, the creation of medium and small local companies and the territorial
expansion on a national scale of the Guararapes Group. Therefore, we aimed to
understand how the use of potiguar territory is configured by the spatial circuit of
clothing production in the technical-scientific-informational context. To this end,
the study is based on the theoretical-methodological conception of spatial circuits
of production and on the contributions of several interlocutors, among which the
geographer Milton Santos stands out, in addition to other authors who expand
the reflection on the current global economic situation, such as David Harvey,
François Chesnais, Georges Benko and others. The results obtained confirm the
thesis presented that the process of productive restructuring, the diversification
of the technical-scientific-informational environment in line with financialization
allowed for different ways of using the territory of Rio Grande do Norte by the
spatial circuit of clothing production. The performance of small local capital
companies such as Del Rayssa, Daya, Miss Modas and others, present
strategies for organizing and expanding the stages of production, circulation and
trade subsidized by elements inherent to this process, however, the scale of
action of these agents is circumscribed to the local and regional dimensions,
presenting varying levels with regard to the technical content employed and the
incorporation of the variables resulting from financialization, which makes it
difficult, among other factors, to expand its scales of territorial realization. On the
other hand, companies with national operations, such as the Guararapes Group,
have expanded their territorial participation in the space production circuit of
clothing, based on the articulation between policies to encourage industrialization
promoted by the State, the adoption of productive flexibility, the tools of the
environment technical-scientific-informational for the rational and logistical use of the state and national territory, and the association between industrial,
commercial and financial capital. |
