Resumo
The economic arrangements constituted by cattle raising in the colonial framework promoted
great changes in the territory of the entire captaincy. The appearance of the villages, in the
first half of the 19th century, is linked to a series of transformations in the Ceará territory
since its independence from Pernambuco. In this process, the established networks synthesize
the relations that have repercussions in Cariri in the constitution of its economy facing the
paradigms of production, circulation, and consumption. Such questions led us to
problematize: what functions did the networks play in the territorial transformations of Cariri
Ceará in the 19th century? For this, we seek to understand its genesis, its role in the
production process of the territory in Cariri in the early nineteenth century, and the influence
of the modernization plans of the networks in the constitution of a connection from the south
of the province to Fortaleza. The methodological procedures are based on a bibliographical
survey of themes such as networks and production of territory, the formation of Cariri
Cearense, railroad implementation projects, and the territory modernization process. In
addition, based on the collections of platforms such as the Biblioteca Nacional Digital, the
Instituto Histórico do Ceará, and the Center for Research Libraries - Global Resources
Network, we researched documents, reports, maps, and texts about the networks and the
territory of Ceará. In concluding our analysis, we understand that the networks made
possible, in the first half of the 1800s, the attempt to constitute a territorial unit not only
economically, but also politically and administratively, articulating the south of Ceará with the
neighboring hinterlands. However, from the 1860s on, Cariri became a central element in the
organization of the modernization projects of the Ceará networks and territory as a control point in the south of the state decreasing the influence of the neighboring provinces and
increasing the centrality of Fortaleza. As elements of integration and control, the networks
allow us to understand how, in the 19th century Cariri, different subjects used them to act
territorially in the realm of circulation, limits, and power.
