Abstract

ABSTRACT This article discusses the nature and structuring factors of cross-border regions in Latin America, from their contradictory interactions in the fervor of history, scales and the sociological realities of the region. From this perspective, the article briefly reviews the specific contexts in which these processes take place within the continent, in contrast to cross-border regionalization processes in other parts of the world. It then discusses the specific context of Latin America based on the overriding everyday factors, which it illustrates by weighing up two cases located on the borders of Peru and Chile and Brazil and Bolivia. Finally, it discuss certain heuristic challenges of these studies, such as the growing role of women in border processes, as well as the presence of indigenous peoples with their specific territorial visions.
