the territorialization of Paulinia's film industry, São Paulo

This article intends to evaluate the spatial consequences of the ambitious cultural policy developed by the city of Paulínia (SP) in 2006 and the dilemmas of its growth after 2012. More precisely, I chose to analyze the challenges of creating a film industry in Paulínia. In order to do so, I used the concept of cultural industry as seen in Scott & Power (2004), which could be synthesize as a strategy promoted by public and private agents to create at the same time an economy capable of carrying culture values as much as a culture that gains economic value. A cultural industry could promote an economic ativity capable of benefit itself from social life and use of unending resources. Besides, a cultural industry counts on fast growing consumer markets. As a result, I hope to contribute to the Brazilian Cultural Geography as I present a discussion that promote the convergence of arguments found in economics and cultural theories, in opposition to what Geography traditionally did.

本文旨在评估巴西圣保罗州保利尼亚市（Paulínia）于2006年推行的雄心勃勃的文化政策所带来的空间效应，以及2012年后该市文化产业发展面临的各类困境。更具体而言，本文聚焦于分析保利尼亚市发展电影产业所遭遇的挑战。为此，本文采用了斯科特与鲍尔（Scott & Power，2004）提出的文化产业概念，该概念可被概括为一种由公共与私人行为主体共同推动的战略：其核心目标是同时构建出能够承载文化价值的经济形态，以及能够实现经济增值的文化样态。文化产业能够催生一种可从社会生活中汲取养分、依托无限资源的经济活动。此外，文化产业依托高速扩张的消费市场。基于上述分析，本文希望通过融合经济学与文化理论的相关论证——这有别于传统地理学的研究范式——为巴西文化地理学（Brazilian Cultural Geography）的发展贡献学术价值。
