Abstract

Located on the Bolivian territorial periphery, the city of Cobija, capital of the Department of Pando, has a special territorial policy: the regulation of a Free Trade Zone. The state’s action in regards to territorial planning highlighted the premises of Milton Santos’ (2004) model of the two urban economy circuits. This paper highlights the manner in which the State can, through policies that interfere with the mercantile order, spatially segregate the urban space and promote the rearrangement of the social order.
