Divisão territorial e democratização do espaço

Abstract

In this research, we discuss the spatial changes determined by a policy of deterritorialization and its subsequent territorialization, provided by a set of technical, political and cultural interventions, with the purpose of reconfiguring the notion of time and the changes produced in space. These transformations aimed at the modernization of labor and consumption relations in a region with fragile indices of capitalist competitiveness. It starts from the historical universe of conversion of the autonomist strategies into separatists, through the massification of two languages: one of destruction of the traditional culture of the population of the North of Goiás; Another, directed to the acceptance of a culture, characterized by the symbolism of new times, materialized by a policy of urban expansion. All these phases were important in the construction of the analysis of the practices of territorial consolidation and the power of the migrants. All this occurred at a time when Teotônio Segurado's autonomous pretensions were converted into a set of separatist strategies. Hence the importance of the theories of Boaventura Santos (1988, 1999, 2004, 2013 and 2014), as local, national and international power and politics went through several territorial, economic and cultural crises. In this direction, the counterpoints to the discussions about what happened in the North of Goiás were structured in the context of the ongoing discussions on Portuguese identity, within the context of the spelling agreement between Portuguese-speaking countries and the political-cultural situation of Portugal, after its Entry into the EU, both of which are treated in the text as objects of deterritorialization.
