GORENSTEIN, Silvia. APPROACHES AND DEBATES ABOUT NATURAL RESOURCES, ACCUMULATION AND TERRITORY. Semest. Econ. [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.51, pp.125-148. ISSN 0120-6346.  https://doi.org/10.22395/seec.v22n51a6.

The paper addresses approaches to the current theoretical debate about activities based on the exploitation of natural resources (RRNN) and their role in the territorial accumulation process of the current cycle of capitalism. This review contemplates approaches to political economy and social sciences fields. It identifies their theoretical derivations in the characterization of RRNNs and extractive activities, income in the integration of global value chains, the role of the State and more generally, repercussions for development processes in Latin American countries, in which there are growing territorial disputes over their intensive use.
