Abstract

This chapter presents a descriptive visual record of the Paraná Tri-Border Area (between Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay), using 40 images (map and photographs). It aims to describe this border context using images to portray the territory’s different features that have been described in written text in previous social research. With these images, we have built a visual story of the geographic/border interconnections and the particularities of the three most important cities that make up the Tri-Border Area (TBA): Puerto Iguazú (Argentina), Foz de Iguazú (Brazil), and Ciudad del Este (Paraguay). Through this exercise, we show how they differ by constituting enclaves. We will also show that this differentiation enhances specific forms of border articulation between these localities.
