Order By: Relevance

“…The above poses the question of why, if space is socially produced, so many agents adopt conflictive relationships that are full of contradictions in the context of capitalism. Lefebvre (2015) argues that these agents can be understood at the levels of "macro-decisions" and "micro-decisions". Thus, according to Lefebvre (2015, p. 448-449), "politicians, technocrats and planners, the military, financiers, local authorities, construction workers, and 'users'" and "urban social movements [...], architects and urbanists", intervene and produce "in a joint and disjointed way the homogeneous and broken space", constitutive and characteristic of capitalism.…”

This paper aims to analyze the current transformations of commercial capital in contemporary capitalism. In light of the dynamics of globalization, retail commercial capital has changed its actions and strategies, based on the prevailing logic of the functioning of the capitalist economy in the current period. The study examines the global expansion of retail, as well as its territorial consequences, and gives particular emphasis to the role of financialization and real estate business in these dynamics. Finally, we highlight how both foreign and domestic retail companies began to view real estate investment as a means of obtaining profitability that contributes to economic reproduction.

“…‘Change life’ is an expression that ‘plays the role of a symptom of the future. It announces a shifting of meaning, an inflection of time and space: a (total) revolution’ (Lefebvre, 2015: 455). Hence, the effort of Lefebvre (2000: 482) shows the links between the ‘theory of the production of space’ and the revolutionary process on a global scale.…”

This commentary engages with Napoletano et al.'s analysis of the relationship between society and nature in the work of Henri Lefebvre. I present some reflections on the nexuses between the production of space, autogestion, and the appropriation of nature. I maintain that the politics of space is not separate from the politics of nature. Autogestion is fundamental to construct a revolutionary project to ‘change life’ that includes a new society–nature relationship in the context of the ‘revolution of space’.

It is of particular note how, over recent decades, the theory of the production of space, drawn up in the 1970s by Henri Lefebvre, has become one of the leading approaches to urban studies. Although his contributions are still applied today in manifold interpretations in both the Global North and South, there are nonetheless a myriad of interrelated themes to Lefebvrian theorization that deserve greater attention. In this paper, I propose to problematize the relationship between the theory of the production of space and ecology under the assumption that within Lefebvre’s theory there is a concept of nature, which is fundamental to understanding the politics of spatial policy and therefore, enables the politicization of nature and ecology to be perceived. The hypothesis I develop in this article is a first approach to the subject of Nature in the works of Lefebvre, seeking to link the threads which connect the discussion on the Theory of the Production of Space, and the conception of nature related to that theory.
