  Let $\mathcal F(r, d)$ denote the moduli space of algebraic foliations of
codimension one and degree $d$ in complex proyective space of dimension $r$. We
show that $\mathcal F(r, d)$ may be represented as a certain linear section of
a variety of complexes. From this fact we obtain information on the irreducible
components of $\mathcal F(r, d)$.
