This paper proposes that the territory of Patagonia-Aysén (Chile) is not naturally a peripheral area but -instead- the result of a historical-geographical production that constructed as a peripheral spatiality. The text identifies the production processes of fixed geographical imaginaries in a state-centered perspective and concludes that the territory of Patagonia-Aysén can be explained by the social frames from where it is projected.

Palabras llave : borders; globalization; local; identity; interculturality.
