The guiding question was: how is the border condition configured through the peripheral/strategic behavior of frontier spaces in the Amazon region of Brazil? The methodological approach was the hypothetical-deductive based on three investigation strategies; qualitative analysis of documents, review of specialized literature and fieldwork observations. The results indicate that the Amazon frontier cannot be considered peripheral or strategic in isolation. These two adjectives qualify specific historical, political and economic uses that need to be considered together to understand the border condition of the Brazilian Amazon. We conclude that the peripheral/strategic behavior reveals not only the historical-economic construction of the border, but also the choice of national decision-making centers, reflected in the public policies implemented in the region. El objetivo de este artículo fue discutir la condición fronteriza de la Amazonia brasileña entre los siglos XX y XXI a partir de su comportamiento periférico y estratégico. La pregunta orientadora fue: ¿cómo se configura la condición de frontera a través del comportamiento periférico/estratégico de los espacios fronterizos en la región amazónica de Brasil? El enfoque metodológico fue el hipotético-deductivo basado en tres estrategias de investigación; análisis cualitativo de documentos, revisión de literatura especializada y observaciones de campo. Los resultados indican que la frontera amazónica no puede considerarse periférica o estratégica en forma aislada. Estos dos adjetivos califican usos históricos, políticos y económicos específicos que necesitan ser considerados juntos para comprender la condición fronteriza de la Amazonia brasileña. Se concluye que el comportamiento periférico/estratégico revela no solo la construcción histórico-económica de la frontera, sino también la elección de los centros de decisión nacionales, reflejada en las políticas públicas implementadas en la región.

| description |
The objective of this article was to discuss the border condition of the Brazilian Amazon between the 20th and 21st centuries from its peripheral and strategic behavior. The guiding question was: how is the border condition configured through the peripheral/strategic behavior of frontier spaces in the Amazon region of Brazil? The methodological approach was the hypothetical-deductive based on three investigation strategies; qualitative analysis of documents, review of specialized literature and fieldwork observations. The results indicate that the Amazon frontier cannot be considered peripheral or strategic in isolation. These two adjectives qualify specific historical, political and economic uses that need to be considered together to understand the border condition of the Brazilian Amazon. We conclude that the peripheral/strategic behavior reveals not only the historical-economic construction of the border, but also the choice of national decision-making centers, reflected in the public policies implemented in the region. |
