Land Speculation by International Financial Capital in Brazil
The global economic crisis in 2007-2008 intensified the role of financial capital in farmland markets around the world. Speculation in land facilitates the circulation of financial capital in a context of international economic instability. This trend is stimulated by foreign pension funds in search of new assets. The economic crisis generated a change in the profile of agribusiness in Brazil through mergers and joint ventures not only with forei…
A produção do espaço na região do Matopiba
O presente artigo visa dissertar sobre a presença recente de transnacionais imobiliárias agrícolas na região conhecida por MATOPIBA. A partir do movimento metodológico de crítica da totalidade concreta (SCHOLZ, 2016), observa-se a possibilidade de tais transnacionais investirem na terra como ativo financeiro à parte, ao moverem a subida de seu preço de forma especulativa. Isso ocorre como processo de crise da acumulação capitalista, que se caract…
International Financial Capital and the Brazilian Land Market
International financial capital stimulated the production of industrial agricultural supplies in Brazil during the foreign debt crisis of the 1980s. In the mid-1990s new financial sources became available for debt rollovers, and this fueled a new cycle of industrialization in agriculture. This trend intensified in the years that followed, when commodity prices were high on the international markets. It led to an increase in the concentration of c…
Agrocombustíveis e crise de alimentos
Neste ensaio, os agrocombustíveis são analisados no contexto da crise mundial de preços dos alimentos e da proposta de "soberania alimentar". Examinam-se as causas da crise, de curto e longo prazo, e embora os agrocombustíveis não sejam atualmente um fator determinante, são claramente contraindicados nesta conjuntura de crise. Argumenta-se que a soberania alimentar, incluindo uma moratória no tocante aos agrocombustíveis, constitui a melhor opção…
O Papel da Agricultura nas Relações Internacionais e a Construção do Conceito de Agronegócio
O artigo analisa o papel da agricultura nas relações internacionais, particularmente a partir da disseminação mundial do modo de produção denominado agronegócio. O conceito de agronegócio está relacionado a um conjunto de medidas impulsionadas por governos e instituições privadas que intensificaram a industrialização e a padronização da agricultura em nível internacional. No período posterior à Segunda Guerra Mundial, verifica-se um processo de e…
Modo capitalista de produção e agricultura
This thesis investigates factors that influenced the construction of the image of agriculture in the capitalist mode of production and its representation by the concept that was disseminated as agribusiness.The use of this word became common in academic and political spheres, as well as in the media.The so-called industrialization of agriculture was more prevalent particularly after 1950's, in a context of a crisis of over-accumulation of capital…

This text is part of a more extensive project I am currently working on entitled "Representation of the others: How the Media looks at diversity" which intends to investigate, through analysis of different media productions, contents related to various minority groups (ethnic, gender, age, culture etc.) and their articulation between identity construction and subjectivity. The concern on representation assumes that the discourses about aging refl…
Assumptions in the European Union biofuels policy
The biofuel project is an agro-industrial development and politically contested policy process where governments increasingly become global actors. European Union (EU) biofuels policy rests upon arguments about societal benefits of three main kinds - namely, environmental protection (especially greenhouse gas savings), energy security and rural development, especially in the global South. Each argument involves optimistic assumptions about what t…
O etanol e a reprodução do capital em crise
O artigo analisa as tendências mais recentes no setor canavieiro e avalia o crescente processo de formação de monopólios, principalmente com participação de empresas multinacionais. O estudo observa que a maior concentração de capitais é acompanhada pelo aumento da expansão territorial do monocultivo da cana, principalmente em áreas com acesso a infraestrutura, como a região Sudeste, e em regiões com vastas bacias hidrográficas, como o Cerrado. E…

Debt, Drugs and Democracy an Interview with Noam Chomsky
In the Third World, the overwhelming majority of the population had nothing to do with all the borrowing. They got no gains from it—in fact they were probably harmed by it—so why should they pay
