The eagerness for profitability made the capitalists take natural goods in their integral form, to the point of not worrying about their disappearance. The analytical perspective adopted comprises not only issues related to the use of the natural environment, but also social relations, which unequally translate into the production of space and how the negative consequences of these forms of appropriation are imposed unequally between classes and groups. social.
