Popis: O artigo ancora-se nas formulacoes de autores latino-americanos aglutinados no paradigma modernidade–colonialidade, para sugerir que os processos de expansao territorial foram e continuam sendo nodais para a logica capitalista. Se, no colonialismo historico, a rapina dos recursos naturais legitimava-se pela forca e supremacia politico-militar do Estado colonizador, no contexto atual, vigem outros mecanismos de poder que garantem a continuidade da expropriacao. Para elucidar esse processo, formula-se a nocao de colonialidade na apropriacao da natureza, entendida como resultado da construcao, no interior da modernidade, de formas economico-instrumentais de se pensar e explorar o meio ambiente. Por fim, retomam-se as discussoes sobre a pertinencia da teoria da dependencia e, com base em dados empiricos, sugere-se a emergencia de novas relacoes centro–periferia, que estariam se estruturando por intermedio dos frequentes deslocamentos de capitais e pelo modo como grandes corporacoes transnacionais impoem novas formas organizativas de exploracao do trabalho e da natureza. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Colonialidade. Colonialismo. Centro-periferia. Expropriacao territorial. Teoria da dependencia. FROM COLONIALISM TO COLONIALITY: territorial expropriation on the outskirts of capitalism Wendell Ficher Teixeira Assis This article is based on the formulations of Latin- American authors who study the paradigm modernity-coloniality. They suggest that the processes of territorial expansion were, and still are, fundamental for the capitalist logic. If in historic colonialism the plunder of natural resources was done through strength and political-military supremacy of the colonizer State, currently other mechanisms of power guarantee the continuity of the exploration. In order to elucidate this process, the notion of coloniality in the appropriation of nature is formulated, understood as a result of the constructions in the interior of modernity which think of economic-instrumental ways of exploring the environment. Lastly, we go back to discussions regarding the pertinence of the theory of dependence and based on empirical data, suggest the emergence of new downtown-outskirts relations which would be structured by the constant displacement of capitals and by the way big international corporations impose new organized ways of exploring work and nature. KEYWORDS: Coloniality. Colonialism. Downtownoutskirts. Territorial Expropriation. Theory of dependence. DU COLONIALISME A LA COLONIALITE: expropriation territoriale dans la peripherie du capitalisme Wendell Ficher Teixeira Assis L’article se base sur les formules des auteurs latino-americains regroupes autour du paradigme modernite-colonialite pour suggerer que les processus d’expansion territoriale ont ete et sont toujours nodaux dans la logique capitaliste. Si, dans le colonialisme historique, le pillage des ressources naturelles etait justifie par la force et la suprematie politique et militaire de l’Etat colonisateur, actuellement d’autres mecanismes de pouvoir sont en place pour garantir la continuite de l’expropriation. Pour elucider ce processus, une nouvelle formule est apparue, celle de la colonialite dans l’appropriation de la nature, etimee comme resultat de la construction au sein de la modernite de moyens economiques et instrumentaux de penser et d’exploiter l’environnement. Pour finir, on reprend les discussions sur la pertinence de la theorie de la dependance et, en se basant sur des donnees empiriques, on signale le surgissement de nouvelles relations centre-peripherie qui seraient en train de s’etablir sur des mouvements frequents de capitaux et sur la maniere qu’ont les grandes corporations transnationales d’imposer de nouvelles formes d’organisation de l’exploitation du travail et de la nature. MOTS-CLES: Colonialite. Colonialisme. Centreperipherie. Expropriation Territoriale. Theorie de La dependance.
