Undoubtly space is accepted and taken for granted by most geographers as the object of study of their science. However, more and more the word space has been loaded with a number of meanings, which makes it necessary further clarification. In this paper we made an attempt to discuss the concept of production of space aiming at understanding of the action of capital looking deep and carefully for expanded reproduction and social resistance against this process. If the action of capital has as  principle the production of space looking for expansion, dialectically there is a kind of resistance from some groups within the society. Landless Rural Workers Moviment, Homeless Workers Movement, Residents Association and Solidarity Economy are good examples of production of space as resistence to capital.
