Conservacionismo y nuevos usos del suelo en el Bajo Amazonas y en la Norpatagonia chilena: una discusión sobre renta territorial y vocación espacial en el contexto del capitalismo contemporáneo

This paper aims to discuss theoretically some of the geographical breakdowns related to the processes of conversion of nature and landscape into commodities, whose value is constituted from a contradictory relationship between scarcity and rarity. We understand this relationship as part of a process...

description This paper aims to discuss theoretically some of the geographical breakdowns related to the processes of conversion of nature and landscape into commodities, whose value is constituted from a contradictory relationship between scarcity and rarity.

As a potential capital, the “preserved space” is a reserve of value that expands directly in relation to its possibilities of use.
