GLOBALIZATION AND ECONOMIC AND TERRITORIAL DYNAMIC IN LATIN AMERICA

Abstract

The article addresses the contemporary debate on the so-called neoliberal globalization and the socioeconomic and territorial dynamics in the peripheral areas of capitalism, caused by the forms of integration that privilege financialization over the productive aspects, carried out by countries in Latin America. An important element in the understanding of neoliberalism that imposed a destructive logic of historical conquests (Welfare States) on everyone, was to escape from the vision of the economic mainstream and to rely on Political Economy and heterodox currents. This commodity-based insertion form directs economic, social and environmental policies according to neoliberal precepts and consolidates an unstable and vulnerable growth pattern that increases the degree of dependence and accounts for the situation of inequality and expropriation of minorities excluded from globalization. financial. The heart of the matter is the deregulation of financial, commercial and investment flows services proposed by market fundamentalism, which imposed itself on everyone, under the complacency of a National State that becomes smaller in the exercise of its role promoting development and public policies.
