| Abstract | The South-Western Amazon is the geographic region formed in the states of Acre, Rondônia and southern Amazonas, Brazil, and borders Peru with the Departments of Madre de Dios and Ucayali, and in Bolivia, with the Department of Pando. This region has become strategic for regional integration with the conclusion of the Pacific Road or Interoceanic Highway since 2010. The goal of the thesis investigation is the Pacific Road in the South-Western Amazon as part of the territorial integration process in the Triple Frontier in Brazil, Bolivia and Peru, having as empirical analysis and spatial clipping in Brazil, especially in the State of Acre. The Pacific Road is part of the South American Regional Integration Initiative Project (IIRSA), defined for the South-Western Amazon region in the Peru-Brazil-Bolivia Hub (Eixo Peru-BrasilBolívia PBB). The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the Pacific Road and its influence to the regional integration, in addition to territorial integration, in the SouthWestern Amazon, in the region of the Triple Frontier, in the State of Acre. The road is the main land access to the territory of the South-Western Amazon; it crosses the southwest of the State of Acre. It also provides access to the capital of the State of Acre and Rondônia, to the border towns of Cobija, the capital of the Pando Department in Bolivia, and in the Peruvian territory it cuts through the border town of Iñapari, runs the southeast portion to Porto Maldonado, Cusco subdivided into three stretches until reaching the Pacific Coast. The highway was inaugurated with the spotlight of the intercontinental integrationist speech, lowering the costs of transport by a shorter distance rover for foreign trade with the Asian market. The research has as dialectical critical methodology, it works with the totality, it looks for the conflicts and the contradictions, besides the determination that produce the studied reality, therefore this is the way the thesis goes. Backed by the analysis of categories State, borders, limits, territory, circulation and flows to understand the territorial dynamics. Institutional and field research is carried out, and the methodological path with a critical view is analyzed, the regional integrationist bias is analyzed in a territory of frontier, prevailing the qualitative approach. It is verified that despite the negative media discourse about the Pacific Road, there is dynamization of circulation, with flows of people, migrants, and tourists, strengthening local and intraregional businesses. The flows are more significant for border counties than at national level characterized by cross-border relationships. It is concluded that despite socio-spatial and environmental conflicts in the implementation of the Pacific Highway as an international route of flows, the results show that the highway is preponderant in the regional circulation, since it stimulates the regional integration of the border territory, tourism and commerce border countries. |
