Productive and economic changes and territorial reconfiguration in Brazil at the beginning of the 21st century1 1 I am grateful for the essential suggestions made by two anonymous reviewers, who have contributed significantly to the present version. I thank the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) for the support of my research. This article is indebted to numerous colleagues with whom I discussed the ideas synthesized here, which were decisive for me to arrive at this version. The remaining shortcomings of it, however, are mine.

Abstract

The objective of this article is to identify the most remarkable changes and transformations in the productive structures that have impacted the Brazilian territory in the recent period (2003-2018). It proposes and analyzes a typology of the investments made in these 15 years and their significant space repercussions. In the period of growth (2004-2014), public and private investments were oriented: by the inertial-coastal pattern, by their punctual nature of enclaves, by the expansion of commodity production, by infrastructure and by social spending. This pattern of growth has been interrupted since 2015 with likely significant territorial impacts underway.
