Abstract

The borderland is a space of conflict and natural resistances —a country is in constant resistance to the other—, but it is also an emotive space full of encounters, narratives, images, and stories that build symbolic places. Is through the narratives of perception that an analysis of interviews, mapping and photographic register of the frontier line of Ciudad Juarez/El Paso —Mexico and United States— carry out to build an emotive cartography of the place. The borderland is visualized as a complex space full of particularities constructing it as an emotive place in constant movement, in spite of its intrinsic conflicts.
