Abstract
Financial capitalism has reshaped the system of surplus extraction through the financialization of land and its conversion into fictitious capital. This has entailed the dissolution of the dichotomy between land-owners and developers. The entrepreneurial turn of the neoliberal city has implied a new economic and political role, being the developer more involved in the decision process. At the same time, this has also been a decisive push for the creation of a new elite: the real-estate and financial oligarchy. This paper pretends to analyze the network of firms that dictates the spatial logic of the city of Palma.
