PARSERISAS, Derlis Daniela. Financial phenomenon and uses of the territory: finance, credit and consumption in Argentina (2001-2016). Estudios Socioterritoriales [online]. 2019, vol.26. ISSN 1853-4392.

In the national territory and in the cities there coexist spatial divisions of labor that can be thought of as circuits of the urban economy. We can recognize a spatial division of labor hegemonic linked to the upper circuit, whose engine is finance, which is impose don others. However, in the other ways of working, although finance is important, there is a subordination to the ways of money circulation that occurs through financial instruments such as loans, credit cards and high interest rates. The aim of work is to analyze the relationshipbetween the financial phenomenon and the territory in Argentina. Emphasis is placed on the diffusion of finances in cities, through banks and other financial actors of the upper circuit involved in the supply of consumer loans.
