DILLA ALFONSO, Haroldo  y  CONTRERAS VERA, Camila. Borders and Latin American cross-border agreements. Estud. front [online]. 2021, vol.22, e069.  Epub 04-Oct-2021. ISSN 2395-9134.  https://doi.org/10.21670/ref.2106069.

This article discusses the emergence of a field of studies on cross-border agreements in Latin America as a positive feature in favor of the construction of a critical theory of Latin American borders, but at the same time weighed down in heuristic terms by its theoretical and methodological dependences to the mainstream of European and North American studies. A theoretical approach is proposed that, without ignoring the stock accumulated in these studies, considers the characteristics of the neoliberal bordering in Latin America and the reality of its experiences of agreements. In this sense, several cases are analyzed from a preliminary typology based on their institutional/scalar origins.

Palabras llave : borderlands; cross-border agreements; Latin America.
