RUPTURES AT THE URBAN NETWORK AND FACES OF THE LABOR MARKET

Abstract

The Globalization of the capital is one of the greatest agents propelling the work division. By augmenting the general conditions of production in the diverse scales, it aggregates several new spaces to the circulation and production of goods. This reverberates territorially in the de-concentration of production, reaffirming more and more the need of a technical and territorial of work, as well as a new way of work organization, having in mind the encouragement of productivity. The restructuring of the productive processes provokes many changes at the social reproduction and the organization of the geographic space. In Brazil, specially since the 1980s many places become attractive for the modern production and have been incorporated to the globalized productive circuits of national and multi-national firms of different branches of economics. Among the results, it could be mentioned the economic and territorial restructuring of various natures and magnitudes, bringing about new characteristics to he urban network. At this article, we aim to present, considering the current situation, some of the effects of these processes, materialized in a medium size city and its respective region places at the Brazilian semi-arid zone. We highlight the conformation of the technical and territorial work division by working on the data of formal work.
