Financial resource is placed where it can be revalued through the elimination of land ownership inspired by the Keynesian or populist state, and then by re-appropriating it (Harvey, 2005). This current characteristic of capitalism Harvey (2005, 2007) names it accumulation by dispossession. The aim of this research is to understand the existing process in the setting up of the automotive plant of Audi, in San José Chiapa, México, and analyze whether this setting-up of Audi in the referred municipality can be characterized as a process of accumulation through dispossession, based on the four characteristics proposed by Harvey (2007): privatization and merchandising, financing, management and manipulation of the crisis and state and redistributions. Documentary and field sources were used: journalistic follow-up (2012-2016 and 2017) and visits to the region, files of the National Agrarian Registry (RAN), State Land Bank Trust (FBET), State General Archive, National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI). Peasants, local inhabitants and key actors were interviewed. The main conclusion is that Audi dispossessed the peasants ́ the land and natural resources with the help of the local government, who transferred the costs through taxes to the local population
