SANTOS, Clóvis do. The spirit of capitalism in the occupation of Brazilian cerrados in state of Bahia and Piauí. GOT [online]. 2015, n.8, pp.229-253. ISSN 2182-1267. https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2015.8.012.
This article analyzes the economic, social and political changes happened in the Cerrado of the States of Bahia and Piaui, from the end of the 1970s, with the recent process of occupation of its territories in the implementation of modern agriculture with grains production in Brazil. This process causes vigorous expansion of the agricultural frontier that incorporated areas located in the two States, inserted in a global perspective of flows drawn by the major multinational corporations (trading) linked to agribusiness. It discusses regularities, shows up shifts and transformations, as well as attempts to explain the more general determinations which lead the two phenomena, starting from the set of Max Weber's ideas as well as having an understanding and interpretation of what happened in the two territories as an action social.
