During the first two decades of the twenty-first century, the Paraguayan Chaco suffered profound social, productive, and ecological transformations due to investments that, through deforestation, expanded the agricultural frontier for the production of livestock and grains. This article analyzes the factors that made the Paraguayan Chaco an attractive location for capitalist expansion as well as the historical characteristics of this passage of land into foreign hands. The major findings demonstrate that this movement of capital is due to the Chaco's situation as a commodities frontier area with policies favorable to foreign investment in Paraguay, making it a haven for foreign capital. En las primeras décadas del siglo XXI el Chaco paraguayo atravesó profundas transformaciones sociales, productivas y ecológicas con la expansión de inversores que, deforestación mediante, expandieron la frontera agropecuaria para la producción de ganado y granos. Este artículo analiza qué motivos volvieron al Chaco paraguayo un destino atractivo para la expansión capitalista y qué particularidades históricas tiene este proceso de extranjerización de la tierra. Los principales resultados muestran que este movimiento de capitales resulta de la condición de frontera de commodities del Chaco y de las políticas favorables a la inversión extranjera en Paraguay que lo vuelven un refugio para capitales extranjeros
