In terms of spatial distribution of the activity, the Concentrated Region stands out, which, as suggested by the nomenclature itself, has the highest technical density and concentration of firms, followed by the Northeast region. In this one, the topology of the textile space circuit presents peculiarities, especially after the remarkable proliferation that occurred, especially in the last two decades - noting, however, that this expansion is not recent and carries marks arising from the shocks faced throughout its historical evolution. -space. Thus, the work on screen analyzes the spatial circuit of textile production in the Brazilian Northeast, from its productive specializations and the contradictions expressed by the corporate use of the territory, in terms of the dimensions of technique, capital and work. In view of the problematization outlined in this thesis, it is conjectured that this productive spatial circuit, in the established cut, materializes through territorial specializations that are coordinated by a corporate use of an extraverted character, whose control is exercised externally by devices of appropriation of the process of circulation of capital, as well as the alienation of the production process. These devices of capital accumulation conform to forms and norms, among which the technical-informational densities, fiscal and financial mechanisms, as well as the expropriation and exploitation of the workforce stand out. For the delimitation of the object and achievement of the specific objectives, the techniques and methodological procedures of bibliographic, documentary and field research were established. The theoretical framework permeates a general discussion about geographic space as a totality and the approach of productive spatial circuits from the point of view of a political economy of the territory in Santos (2008a, 2008b, 2012a, 2012c), Moraes (1984), Marx (2011) , 2017), Harvey (2013) and Castillo and Frederico (2010); as well as based on the categories of socio-spatial training and territorial division of labor (SANTOS, 1977b, 2005, 2008e, 2012a; SERENI, 2013; BARRIOS, 2014, GOLDENSTEIN; SEABRA, 2011; RIBEIRO, 2003; SILVEIRA, 2010b) to reflect on the development of the northeastern region (ANDRADE 1970, 1981a and 1988; ARAÚJO, 2002; OLIVEIRA, 1977). In the historical-spatial contextualization built, three periods of evolution of the Northeastern textile activity were identified: the agrarian roots of the spatial circuit of textile production; the gestation of “internal domination”; and the peripheral insertion to the informational technical-scientific environment. The methodology and analysis used resulted in a typology and a topology of textile subcircuits, whose spatial overlap conforms to sixteen productive territorial specializations, distributed in certain points or patches of the Brazilian Northeast. Finally, the flows entangled by the Northeastern textile production from its main spaces of circulation were problematized, correlating them to the circles of cooperation in space and to complementary circuits.Acesso AbertoCircuito espacial de produção têxtilNordeste brasileiroTerritórioEspecializações territoriais produtivasCírculos de cooperação no espaçodoctoralThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::GEOGRAFIA
