Resumen

En este ensayo se propone una mirada de acumulación territorial que articula las fuerzas históricas de colonización/colonialidad, modernidad, y capital.      En este sentido, acumulación territorial se interpreta como la condensación materializada de estas fuerzas históricas en la organización de territorio y en la jerarquización de cuerpos. Se utiliza la idea de ‘bordes’ (y específicamente las ‘tecnologías de bordes’ y ‘luchas por bordes’) como dispositivos analíticos que permiten un análisis de articulación de estas fuerzas históricas en el terri-torio y sobre cuerpos. A manera de ilustrar estos procesos y condensaciones se utiliza la región metropolitana de La Paz/El Alto. Diferentes momentos       de esta región metropolitana ilustran cómo la acumulación territorial es un proceso abierto, donde los sedimentos de fuerzas históricas están en constante tensión y negociación.
