Abstract

In the context of the specificity of Brazilian urbanization, where simultaneous with the growth of the cities, the types of work with reduced capital and less modern technologies also grow, our research analyses the territory used by different agents of the medicalhospital equipments production system in the state of São Paulo, looking at the different divisions of labor, existing in ways of the circuits of urban economy. Valued in a selective way, the environment building allows installation of more or less profitable activities, while the coexistence of divisions of labor of different ages ensures an interdependent dynamic among the circuits of the urban economy. In this way, we discuss the existence of a marginal upper circuit related to the medicalhospital equipments production in Campinas, Ribeirão Preto e São José do Rio Preto (SP) and its complementary function that it accomplishes for the brazilian health services.
