| Summary: | The paper aims at dealing with territory notions from economical
approaches, usually used in Geography. Many times, territory
concepts that limit it to a physical base, superficial, of the
economical processses that produce space, are predominant
in studies about the spacial transformations and space
production. This way, Geography adopts conceptual
interpretations from natives of other fields of knowledge, from
different forms of thinking and methods. Territory and
territoriality escape this way from an ample reading of the
space. In the case of the rural space, being greatly defined for
economical elements, it has in its territoriality the presence of
actions headed to the regional development. Evaluating an
effective construction of the territory, constituted by the
economical logic and its socio-cultural political implications
about the rural space, is mainly important. |
