Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This study analysed the influence of spatial interventions on urban life in Manacapuru, mediated by the commercial goods and services sector, specifically hotels and petrol stations. In this research we started from the hypothesis that the Rio Negro bridge is the geographical object that most intensely induces urban lifestyles in these consumer spaces by facilitating motorised vehicle traffic between Manaus and Manacapuru. This event has influenced consumer spaces to become places where social relations are increasingly mediated by the capitalist mode of production. Therefore, this work shows that trade in goods and services has gained new values in line with economic and socio-spatial transformations.
