Considering the tendency to a new expansion of the spatial axis of the metropolis that concentrates command activities of large companies, the so-called Southwestern Vector, we analyzed the Urban Intervention Project Arco Jurubatuba, an urban restructuring plan proposed in 2018. This project targets an area that we identified as the southern border of the Southwestern Vector and its proposals seem to favor the advancement of a real estate front. However, the objectives and possible impacts of the project are not homogeneous in relation to the territory. In order to understand the process of centrality production, we discuss the conditions related to the concentration of economic and political power in certain urban areas. In view of the economic meaning of such a process, we examine the role of centrality as a privileged location, which generates monopoly conditions for certain sectors of the real estate market. We also discuss the fundamental participation of the State in the attribution of centrality to new locations, substituting uses and elaborating new images and symbolic contents for space through the mobilization of legal devices and its repressive force. Neste artigo, discutimos o processo de produção de centralidades de negócios em áreas anteriormente não-centrais de São Paulo. Considerando a tendência a uma nova expansão do eixo espacial da metrópole que concentra atividades de comando de grandes empresas, o chamado Vetor Sudoeste, analisamos o projeto de intervenção urbana Arco Jurubatuba, plano de reestruturação urbana proposto em 2018. Este projeto visa uma área que identificamos como fronteira sul do Vetor Sudoeste e as suas proposições parecem favorecer o avanço de uma frente imobiliária. No entanto, os objetivos e possíveis impactos do projeto não são homogêneos em relação ao território. A fim de compreender os processos de produção da centralidade, debatemos as suas condições, ligadas à concentração de poder econômico e político em determinadas áreas urbanas. Tendo em vista o sentido econômico de tal process, refletimos sobre o papel da centralidade enquanto localização privilegiada, que gera condições de monopólio para determinados setores do mercado imobiliário. Discutimos também a participação fundamental do Estado na atribuição de centralidade a novas partes,, promovendo substituições de usos e elaborando novas imagens e conteúdos simbólicos para o espaço através da mobilização de dispositivos jurídicos e da força repressiva. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/RPS/article/view/10409 10.34096/ps.n4.10409 spa Instituto de Geografía "Romualdo Ardissone", UBA https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/RPS/article/view/10409/9108 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/RPS/article/view/10409/9124 Punto Sur; No. 4 (2021): Crisis global y metamorfosis metropolitana; 212-238 Punto Sur; Núm. 4 (2021): Crisis global y metamorfosis metropolitana; 212-238 2683-7404 urban centralities real estate market urban planning Arco Jurubatuba urban intervention project centralidades urbanas mercado inmobiliário planejamento urbano projeto de intervenção urbana Arco Jurubatuba Centrality production, space monopoly and dispossession: looking at the southern frontier of São Paulo’s Southwest Vector Produção de centralidade, monopólio e despossessão: um olhar sobre a fronteira sul do Vetor Sudoeste de São Paulo info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=puntosur&d=10409_oai
