Revista Ciência Geográfica, Bauru, ano 25, v. 25, n. 2, p. 495-512, jan./dez. 2021.e- 2675-5122http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/20455The state of Amapá is suff ering a process of capitalist development intensifying, because of the major infrastructure works implementation, which allowed the use of the logistical-localization potential and the state’s natural assets. This process is the result of a hegemonic development model, which engenders several contradictions, by way of it is considered an economic solution, but, at the same time, it causes several social and environmental impacts. There is also the fact that big business ventures are involved in illegal practices and the use of violence against traditional peoples. Given these assumptions, this article aims to demonstrate the contradictions under which this model of development in Amapá is built and to identify the actors involved in this process.porAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/AmazôniaCapitalismoGlobalizaçãoAmazonCapitalismGlobalizationArtigo
