DILLA ALFONSO, Haroldo. Transborder Urban Complex in Latin America. Estud. front [online]. 2015, vol.16, n.31, pp.15-38. ISSN 2395-9134.
The existence of crossborder urban areas is a sociological phenomenon that concerns Latin American borders. These settlements are the result of the activation of the flows of capital, goods and people through them and the formation of transborders corridors and regions. Based on a review of several previous theoretical positions, this paper discusses the validity of the conceptual definition of Transborder Urban Complex. Futhermore, it proposes a debate on a number of study variables that account for the nature of the systemic relationships between cities, including demographics, economics, politics, and social relations.
