Abstract
The possibility of capital reproduction through the commercialization of land has spread among the capitalist world cities, making the construction industry a profitable business. The ground rent plus the profits of capital allowed the holder of both the accumulated extraction of surplus value fractions, obtaining significant gains that would be impossible by conventional industrial production. Over the years, the construction industry has been complicating, modernizing, dialoguing with individuals and companies and creating new ways of working, always seeking to increase the wealth of a particular social class. The amount of variables and actors involved in the commercialization of the land surface ends up legitimizing culturally and camouflaging the process base, which remains constant: the treasuring of the earth. The changes in society and the local conditions also contribute to dimming, including to researchers and technicians of urban planning.
