TERUEL, Ana Alejandra  e  ELBIRT, Ana Laura. The Argentina-Bolivia Border: A View from the Historical Records of the Diplomatic Service. Rev Cien Cult [online]. 2020, vol.24, n.44, pp.97-117. ISSN 2077-3323.

This article seeks to contribute to the historical knowledge of the Argentinian-Bolivian border region during a key moment on their development, during the foundation of the cities of La Quiaca (Argentina) and Villazón (Bolivia) on the first decade of the 20th century. This begins with an analysis of the concept of border, understood as a singular space and susceptible region to go down into history, and it presents a general panorama of the region between 1880 and 1930. It places a special emphasis on the impact of the Bolivian and Argentinian states and on the performances and testimonies of their representatives (diplomats and consular officials).The sources mainly used come from the archives of the Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Culture and from the Bolivian National Archive and Library.
