Resumo
This research approaches capitalist development in the Southeast region of Goiás State. It`s know that this region
underwent deep transformations since 1970`s. The first wave came with phosphate and niobium mining industry. After
this, there were three more capitalist waves, agriculture modernization in the 1980`s, neoliberal policies in the 1990`s
together with automaker industry and a new dam construction. All these processes aggravated the contraditions and
increased class struggle in Catalão city.Here the main focus is Goiandira city. For this reason, several factors which
contributed to the formation of this space are taken into consideration. Goiandira is a small town with five thousands
inhabitants, located 14 km far from Catalão. Over the time its relation with Catalão has become more intensified and
conflicts with the city are surfacing more and more.The production of space in Goiandira started with a railroad
construction in 1911. From that moment on land workers found jobs in the town. The railroad construction created the
possibility to build a new village. In this context, not only the church appeared with its rigid views controlling the life
of the people, but also the idea of socialism and the fight against exploitation came as well.This town emancipated
from Catalão in 1931. During a long time due to its workers the railroad left a lasting feature in the town. Despite being
small Goiandira was a railroad connection/hub place and had a important amount of commodities circulation.In 1978,
the railsroads tracks and train station were removed from downtown area, afterwards passengers transportation came
to an end in the 1980`s and later train services were privatized resulting in workers lay off. This process brought
important changes to the town landscape. Today, Goiandira is an enormous laboratory providing workforce to
capitalism in Catalão with hundreds of people on the road night and day. Policy makers in Goiandira are getting ready
to take advantage of the closeness with Catalão and also little by little segregation is growing in Goiandira. Thus, this
study argues that Goiandira has taken part in the capitalist economy, but always being subjected.
