Abstract

The article seeks to understand the recent industrialization that occurred in the State of Ceará in a context of national economic transformation and globalization, its territorial impact and
regional organization of urban space. The interest is to investigate how industrial activity takes place, with focus on points of great economic expansion, such as Sobral, Crato, Juazeiro and the Metropolitan Region of Fortaleza. These urban centers are experiencing economic transformations derived from new industrial dynamism. The installation of many factories is responsible for production increase and for the construction of a new occupational framework. The objective is to understand the territorial effects brought by the most recent transformations, as well as to provide an analysis about the altered spatial structure. Through the exam of the regional industry and all the elements that enable its consolidation, this study seeks to clarify the major changes in the territorial organization.
