| Abstract | |
The notion of piracy, which has been used by human vocabulary since old times, acquires a new sense during the historic period. At this globalization period, the way of capitalist production and the informational scientific technical environment have become worldwide. It consolidates, therefore, on the same technical basis of the society functioning in distinct territories, followed for the more and more rigid world rules of control, as it is presented, on this essay, on the expansion of legal right system and the protection of the intellectual rights. However, the new informational and communicational technologies are progressively more flexible and they allow, where they are set on, non-predict uses and, for that, classified as illegals. This research takes into consideration the expansion of the informational scientific technical environment in Brazil cause new ways of piracy, those that are practiced by the agent of higher circuit of the urban economy, or those whose features of the lower circuit, according Santos proposition(1971; 2004 [1975]). The piracy cannot, therefore, be analyzed as nonstandard to the globalization process in course, but, on the contrary, one of the most remarkable manifestations. So, economic and juridical analysis on the phenomenon, predominant or not, do not allow the comprehension of the totality of the involving agents and situations. The process of urbanizing of the territory combines the selectivity of objects and information, the social inequalities and the maintenance of low incomes, combined to the enormous diffusion of the new goods whose consumption is stimulated by propaganda. In this Brazilian situation, the piracy, contrasting to the higher price of goods so called originals, has a central function on the recent process of modernization of the territory. Finally, getting into the point to reveal piracy as a use of the up-to-date technics and information from the places, they are analyzed as revealed geographical situations of life style and of the production based on embezzlement as source of creation of an urban economy, especially in São Paulo, Belém do Pará and Foz do Iguaçu - Ciudad del Este.
