- Abstract
The way of grasping and enjoying physical and human nature has undergone profound changes throughout history under the aegis of financial and speculative capital. Intending to understand how such changes occurred in Brazilian and mainly goiano soil, this article is divided into three parts. At first, it is proposed to discuss about the subject-nature relationship as evolution from the contemplative condition of natural resources to the appropriation of nature as a thing objectified. Subsequently, we proceed to the analysis of the historical forms of exploitation of natural resources in the so-called Brazilian "sertões" and their materialization in the Goiás state beginning in the period of Portuguese colonization. Finally, we seek to indicate the results of the degradation of subject-nature and subject-subject relations with the advent of agricultural modernization in the Cerrado goiano from the midtwentieth century. From the above arguments, it is inferred that the relational changes resulting from the capital supremacy in Goiás, culminated in the evident division of the rural into two extremes: the remunerative agribusiness and the impoverished small agriculture, linked to the trivialization of the agrarian question; with the impoverishment of inhabitants of both the countryside and the cities; with the devastation of much of the second largest Brazilian biome. And, finally, with the cultural undermining of traditional populations, transforming them into mere country land in a space with high dependence on natural resources.
