| Popis: | The current movement of land acquisition by transnational capital in so-called developing countries is a subject that is gaining the attention of the scientific community, especially after the convergence of the economic crisis of 2007/2008. In this context, from bibliographical revision and documentary survey, we discuss the land appropriation by agribusiness, taking as axiomatic examples Brazil and, in particular, the southwest of Piauí. Considering the current expansion of the agricultural frontier, characterized by land concentration and the control of local natural resources, we highlight the apparent advance of such movement towards the Brazilian semiarid region, with the increase of the number and area of agricultural establishments in zones near to the transition of the biomes Cerrado and Caatinga. |
