Impacts of accumulation with financial predominance on the new industrial geography-productive processes, competitiveness and spatial differentiation

This article analyses the consequences of accumulation with financial predominance on the organization of the industrial world considering the set of changes on the productive processes as an important development of the consolidated changes by the contemporary capitalist configurations. We work out the ways in which the financial accumulation imperative subordinates industrial enterprises to their competitive logic, requiring productivity performances that surpass the patterns previously established by the Fordist configuration. The intention is to investigate the new geographies of these transformations whose result is the constitution of an articulated relationship of territories united by a turbulent and dynamic division of labor, in a contradictory arrangement of different spatial margins of profitability.
