Abstract

Accumulation by dispossession occurs in the waste sector because of the configuration of “trash territories.” This article is based on a study of the localization of sites for the final disposal of waste and the use of sociodemographic information of affected populations and for explaining why certain places become sites for the final disposal of waste and others do not. Further, we explore the implications of the “opening up” of new spheres of accumulation. The article argues that the metabolism of waste confirms that capital reproduces its own conditions of production (the use of nature and cheap labor) at the same time as the process of production continues. This means the final condition of accumulation is the reproduction of the conditions of accumulation. Capital has found the construction of territories of waste is a way of reproducing these conditions.
垃圾领土:墨西哥莫雷洛斯州因剥夺而积累的垃圾
由于 "垃圾领地 "的形成,在废物处理领域出现了通过剥夺财产进行积累的现象。本文基于对垃圾最终处理地的定位研究,利用受影响人口的社会人口信息,解释为什么某些地方成为垃圾最终处理地,而另一些地方却不是。此外,我们还探讨了 "开放 "新的积累领域的意义。文章认为,废物的新陈代谢证实,资本在继续生产的同时,也在复制自己的生产条件(利用自然和廉价劳动力)。这意味着积累的最终条件就是积累条件的再生产。资本发现,建造垃圾场是复制这些条件的一种方式。
