From a descriptive and diachronic approach the study argues that these cities can be interpreted as twin cities, which share a cultural and historical matrix in the regional context.

It is concluded that these cities, despite not having a common government, the economic, cultural, neighborhood and complementarity relations, generate impacts in a city and vice versa, generating interdependencies, mutual conditioning, and a specific form of inter-urban articulation. El objetivo de este artículo es evidenciar los procesos de relacionamientos complementarios que mantienen las ciudades fronterizas de Posadas, Argentina y Encarnación, Paraguay. Desde un abordaje descriptivo y diacrónico el estudio sostiene que estás ciudades pueden ser interpretadas como ciudades gemelas que comparten una historia de relaciones en el contexto regional. Al margen de sus especificidades, ambas ciudades presentan aspectos sociourbanos similares, y en su devenir estuvieron implicadas en los mismos procesos y problemas: flujos fronterizos, políticas del Mercosur, construcción del puente internacional, acuerdos de Tránsito Vecinal Fronterizo, y hasta un fenómeno más inusual, como la impronta que grandes obras de infraestructuras han dejado en sus territorios. Se concluye que estas ciudades, a pesar de no contar con un gobierno común, sostienen relaciones económicas, culturales, de vecindad y complementariedad que producen impactos en una ciudad y viceversa, generando interdependencias, mutuos condicionamientos y una forma específica de articulación interurbana. 2018-12-11 2021-06-03T03:38:53Z 2021-06-03T03:38:53Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/724 10.21670/ref.1820020 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6908 spa eng https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/724/1487 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/724/1488 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/724/1489 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/724/1490 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/724/1507 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/724/1508 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/724/1509 https://ref.uabc.mx/ojs/index.php/ref/article/view/724/1510 Derechos de autor 2018 Estudios Fronterizos text/html application/epub+zip text/xml application/pdf application/pdf text/html application/epub+zip text/xml Posadas, Argentina and Encarnación, Paraguay.

Twin cities? Posadas, Argentina and Encarnación, Paraguay in socio-urban perspective
description The objective of this article is to demonstrate the mechanisms of complementary relationships maintained by the border cities of Posadas, Argentina and Encarnación, Paraguay.

Both cities apart from their specificities, present similar socio-urban aspects, and in their evolution they were involved in the same processes and problems: border flows, Mercosur policies, construction of the international bridge, Border Neighborhood Traffic Agreements, even a more unusual phenomenon, such as the effect that large infrastructure works have left on their territories.
