Acesso em:.2316-3089https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/14987The purpose of this article is to discuss a historical-theoretical perspective the significance of the border and the issue involving the advance of capitalist agricultural frontier in Brazil, besides seek to discuss the role of institutions in the development of a market economy process. In Brazil, the incorporation of previously inaccessible or relatively unpopulated, as in the case of the Brazilian Amazon, by agricultural activities is the result of the advance of capitalist economic frontier. It is clear, therefore, that in Brazil, especially in the Amazon, the advance of capitalist agricultural frontier is occurring within the logic of capital accumulation, however one can not ignore the institutional elements that are present in their interests, and conflicts that permeate the process of economic occupation in a border region so important to the development of capital.Acesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Fronteira agropecuária capitalistaAmazônia brasileiraInstituiçõesCapitalist agricultural frontierAmazonInstitutionsArtigo de EventoTerritórios Rurais, Populações e Sustentabilidade AmbientalDinâmicas Rurais Contemporânea
