Year: 2013
Type: article
Abstract: The considerable increase of the brazilian participation in the international division of labor implies the growing presence of the globalized economic actors and its modern activities in the metropolis of the country, especially in São Paulo which stands out in the international scene as one of the so called "global" cities. However, these metropolis also host an enormous range of activities performed by the poor population. Hence, in these metropolis, different divisions of labor coexist and can be analyzed as circuits of the urban economy (SANTOS, 1978). From the selection of certain areas of the city of São Paulo that appear as "spots of concentration" of the lower circuit, we aim to understand the characteristics of this circuit today as well as how it relates to the key variables of the current period, or, the technique, information, consumption, advertisement and finance.
