Abstract

This paper discusses the theoretical and political ascent of the spatial dimen- sion and its application to the current hierarchization of territorial referencing. It outlines the most adequate theoretical and methodological references for interpreting the new social and spatial dynamics of capitalism, with a particular emphasis on Latin American thought and experiences. These processes are illustrated through a reading of emergent economic and technological trends regarding natural resource exploitation-based production chains, taking the way they affect cities and regions both in terms of external linkages and internal configurations and dynamics into account. Finally, a more general reflection on a future research agenda in the field is presented, repositioning the issue of accumulation in the context of the influence of a new scientific and technological paradigm (proprietary science).
