The general objective of the research is to reflect about the dynamics and tensions that arise in the dynamics between space and body in women bagayeras, who cross merchandise by alternative circuits to avoid control in the limit Aguas Blancas-Bermejo. Methodologically, the text puts in dialogue bibliographical sources that intersect transdisciplinary Latin American cultural studies with ethnographic descriptions and interviews made during the years 2016 and 2017, in order to exhibit how the atmosphere, the environment and the spaces, acquire political dimensions that link corporalities and spatialities. Based on the data obtained, we can conclude that the bagayera women, when crossing merchandise on their backs and confront with gendarmerie personnel, they learn cunning, skills, strengths and strategies that produce corporal transformations.
