Capitalism, the State and conflict in the Province of Cordoba

Abstract

The book Capitalismo, Estado y conflictividad en la Provincia de Córdoba offers an in-depth and critical analysis of the territorial dynamics of capitalism in the province of Córdoba, Argentina. Since the mid-1970s, the country has moved towards a model of accumulation based on the intensive exploitation of agricultural, mining and hydrocarbon resources for the global market. This economic approach has reinforced the dependence of the local economy on transnational capital and has had a high social and environmental cost.
