The spatiality of the Bolivian migration in the frame of the social networks. The case of the Santa Fe green belt

Abstract

To understand spatiality of the Santa Fe horticultural belt is made possible by the approach of Bolivian migration from the existence of relationship networks (La Capital department, Santa Fe providence, Argentine). The spatial dimension of bolivian migration is known by the analysis of socio-spatial links and the identification of everyday experiences in relation to material and symbolic practices of the Bolivian community from methodological contributions of Geography and other social sciences. A series of physical and material shipments are activated by migrants from the moment they take the decision to migrate. In addition, a number of meanings and values are displaced from their original place to destination. Once installed on site, this is deepened by constant exchanges and permanent links within the social structure which is beyond new local destination.
