本文利用价值和空间理论，以及哈维的“通过剥夺积累”的概念，批判性地调查了墨西哥南巴哈加利福尼亚州东开普省土地商品化的历史和社会影响。本文将价值定义为特定社会关系的产物，并考察了地方是如何在发展过程中被创造、价值、商品化和增选的。然而，实际的增选进程在很大程度上取决于基础设施的发展，特别是道路，这些基础设施在塑造不同人不仅如何进入东开普省，而且如何评价东开普省方面发挥着至关重要而又矛盾的作用。
This article utilizes theories of value and space, along with Harvey's notion of "accumulation by dispossession," to critically investigate the histories and social effects of the commodification of place on the East Cape of Baja California Sur, Mexico. The article defines value as the product of specific social relations and examines how places are created, valued, commodified, and co-opted in the development process. The actual process of co-optation, however, is highly contingent on the development of infrastructure, particularly roads, which play a vital yet ambivalent role in shaping how different people not only access but also value the East Cape.
