Sumario:It is a summary of a Dissertation The purpose of the thesis was to analyze the relationship between the city of Bahía Blanca and a recently privatized, foreignized and expanded petrochemical complex, between 1995 and 2002, investigating the dynamics through which extractive processes intervened in the (trans)formation of the urban territory. Our working hypothesis proposed that, under the territorialization of extractive processes, in cities the capitalist appropriation of natural and urban common goods is generated as well as surpluses through the configuration of economic enclaves, producing a development that is revealed as destructive and around which various processes of conflict take place. To work on this hypothesis, we started from urban history, recovering its interdisciplinary and multidimensional character, and we established dialogues with the new local and regional history and the history of the present with the purpose of enriching the spatial and temporal scales of study.
