  abstract = {{T}he ambivalence of borders, as both bridges and barriers, is analysed in the {S}outh {A}merican borderlands, in the cross-border region between {B}olivia, {P}eru and {B}razil. {T}he main hypothesis behind this work is that borders not only refer to the state but they are also a result of a social construction. {T}hrough their practices and narratives, the actors involved shape the border configuration. {T}hrough a multi-scalar approach (from a continental to a local level) and by collating practices and representations of various social agents (from continental organisations to the complexity of social groups on the border), {I} show that different territorial complexes converge on the border and {I} explain the spatial dialectic of the latter. {T}wo ideas emerge as a conclusion to this study: the co-existence of territorialities that are not so exclusive and the key role played by the state despite the changes it undergoes.},
