Hacia una nueva sociología del desarrollo
Este artículo reconstruye los presupuestos teórico-metodológicos de la sociología latinoamericana del desarrollo y el subdesarrollo (SLDS), planteando el potencial que su instrumental analítico ofrece para la comprensión científica de nuevas dinámicas de transformación económica y de subordinación internacional en el capitalismo global. En diálogo con relecturas recientes de la SLDS, el artículo discute el reciente proceso de desindustrialización…
Memoria y futuro del dependentismo
Friedrich Engels on development and nature
Education for National Liberation
Political theories of freedom as non-domination have aroused increasing scholarly interest in recent years. However, extant approaches are yet to incorporate a more specific assessment of the ways in which economic domination becomes reproduced both systemically and internationally. This article sheds light on the specific forms of unfreedom that result from the nature of capitalist economic power in the international division of labour. It does …
Estrazione in movimento
Basandosi sul caso delle città portuali del Cile settentrionale, questo articolo analizza le implicazioni territoriali e sociopolitiche dello spostamento logistico nelle industrie estrattive. L'adozione di imperativi di flusso, velocità e connettività da parte dell'industria mineraria su larga scala ha dato origine a una modalità di organizzazione urbano-territoriale in cui la governance del movimento dei minerali assume un ruolo sempre più rilev…
Trabalho
O texto questiona a condição atual da extração de riquezas por meio de uma ênfase nas geografias do trabalho resultantes de uma base tecnológica atualizada de produção e circulação de minerais. Por meio do caso específico da cadeia de suprimentos de mineração no Chile, e de uma perspectiva da teoria de valor, este artigo desafia a ideia de que a automação significará o fim do trabalho. Ele mostra como a expansão dos atributos produtivos dos traba…
Fossil food
This article analyzes the relation between climate change and the globalization of food systems. Although the corporate food regime made possible by the logistics revolution has been deemed highly intensive in its use of fossil fuels, the political economy of its energy foundations is yet to be deciphered. Based on EDGAR-FOOD, a global database that measures carbon emissions in the food system, we built a sample of nine South American economies t…
The rentierization of food
Current scholarly debates on the financialization of agriculture have tended to give analytical priority to markets over institutional regimes of property. This article shifts the gaze towards the latter in order to illustrate the extent to which globalized food systems have come to be increasingly characterized by rentier dynamics. By considering rent as a relation that relies on monopoly control of the circuit of capital, the article explores t…
On combined and uneven extractivism
The Turbulent Circulation of Rent
Although recent years have seen an efflorescence of research on rent, the emphasis has tended to be placed in the antagonistic relations of distribution that underlie this category. The ways in which rent relations also mediate the expansion of global networks of production and trade, however, are yet to be deciphered. On the other hand, an emerging scholarly interest in questions of logistics and supply chain capitalism has lacked a systematic t…
Gobernar la utopía
From Spaces toCircuits of Extraction
The reorganization of the extractive industries into transnational supply chains has signaled the functional integration of hitherto dispersed elements of social production and brought together natural resources and built environments, as well as city and non-city space, in novel and ever more intricate ways. On the basis of Marx's theorization of the circulation of capital—laid out in Volume II of Capital—the paper develops the notion of circuit…
Towards an agrarian question of circulation
The central role that infrastructures of circulation and connectivity-logistical, financial, and digital-have come to perform in the reproduction of agro-food systems calls for an expanded conception of agriculture that integrates dialectically the production of economic value and its subsequent realization in the sphere of exchange. Through the case of Walmart's expansion in Chile, and on the basis of a critical theorization of the circulation o…
Market monstrosity in industrial fishing
Through a materialist reading of the aesthetic, this paper explores Leviathan, a project of visual anthropology produced by Harvard University’s Sensory Ethnography Lab, in order to reflect on the urbanization of nature as it is advanced by the more-than-human scripture of power objectified in the technologized, capital-intensive spaces of transnational fishing. With its idiosyncratic and technically elaborate mode of representation, Leviathan re…
Revitalizing science and technology studies
This article revisits Marx's philosophy of history with respect to technological change, outlining some elements for the elaboration of a research agenda for materialist studies of science and technology. I argue that dominant thinking on the subject has been insufficiently attentive to relations of production and to the constitutive role of practical, transformative activity. The article suggests that a focus on class relations not only foregrou…
La naturaleza como modo de existencia del capital
Este artículo discute los procesos de modernización minera que se han dado en Latinoamérica, particularmente en el contexto de una nueva geografía de industrialización tardía cuyo centro gravitacional ha girado hacia las economías del Este asiático. A través de la crítica marxista de la ecología, se pretende explicar la manera en que tanto el territorio como el ser humano se han visto despojados de su especificidad concreta para pasar a ser parte…
In the Nature of the Non‐City
This paper proposes extending Urban Political Ecology's (UPE) ideas about the urbanisation of nature in order to include the geographical imprints of expanding, global metabolic flows of matter, energy and capital. It does so through the analysis of Huasco, a small agricultural village in northern Chile that has been overburdened with massive energy undertakings aimed at powering the operations of mines that supply raw materials to international …
Spaces of Extraction, Metropolitan Explosions
Through an exploration of the political economy of the current commodity boom in Latin America, and on the basis of recent appropriations of Henri Lefebvre's notion of planetary urbanization, this article proposes viewing spaces of resource extraction resulting from an escalating international demand for raw materials as particular morphological expressions of market-driven processes of urbanization. Furthermore, the article draws on Lefebvre to …
Financialization, totality and planetary urbanization in the Chilean Andes
The Biopolitical Production of the City
This paper explores the potential of immaterial forms of work for a renewed politics of urban metabolisms where the production of emancipatory subjectivity is recast as a crucial moment in the process of making urban space. Through a critical engagement with the works of Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri, it will be argued that their investigations of the current condition of labour provide a powerful toolkit to get a glimpse of the dense, intricat…
