Abstract
Description
En el artículo se abordan las relaciones entre los cursos hídricos y las fronteras, a partir del caso de Guayaramerín, ciudad limítrofe boliviana, en el departamento del Beni. Este asentamiento se localiza sobre el Mamoré, importante río de la cuenca amazónica, y colinda con un centro urbano casi homónimo en Brasil: Guajará-Mirim. Se describe la localización del asentamiento, su permanencia histórica y crecimiento a partir del rol del río y sus cachuelas en la instalación de Guayaramerín y en la frontera entre Bolivia y Brasil. Se prioriza la recolección de información sobre un punto y no sobre una línea, zona o área político-administrativa.
This article uses the case of the Bolivian frontier city of Guayaramerin- located in that country's Beni Department as a springboard for a discussion of the relationship between water courses and national borderlines. This urban settlement is located on the shores of the important Amazonian Mamoré River and is placed just across an almost homonymous Brazilian city: Guajará-Mirim. The article describes the site where the city was built, its historical permanency, and the role played by the river and its “cachuelas” in encouraging its founding just on the borders between Bolivia and Brazil. Gathering information over a specific locale and not about a line or a political/administrative area is prioritized.
