| Summary: | This study analyzes the formation of bordering spatial factors in the municipalities of Herran (Norte de Santander) and Rafael Urdaneta (Táchira), based in the agricultural trade and how the municipalities are linked and generate effects in the regional integration and development. A literature review and a field survey were conducted followed by questionnaires and interviews with residents of the targeted study area that are involved in the production system that ranges from crop production on the Colombian side to marketing on the Venezuelan side. The main results show that economic factors are crucial to the common dynamic, with a greater dependence from Colombia to Venezuela. The current situation demonstrates the kind of political difficulties that interfere with the needs and development of border communities. It is necessary to build a binational process to achieve consistent development so that the process of integration can be conceived from the borders. |
