FELIZ, Mariano  e  MELON, Daiana. IIRSA, Brazilian sub-imperialism and popular resistance. Conflicts around the Inbambari dam (Peru) and the highway over the TIPNIS (Bolivia). Estudios Socioterritoriales [online]. 2020, vol.28, pp.56-56. ISSN 1853-4392.  http://dx.doi.org/10.37838/unicen/est.28-056.

This article addresses the way in which the Brazilian project of dependent development unfolds in the constitution and consolidation of the Initiative for the Integration of the Regional Infrastructure of South America (IIRSA). Taking up the postulates of dependency theory, specifically those of Marini, the sub-imperialist tendencies emanating from Brazil are analyzed, based on the promotion of a type of integration and a regional division of labor at the service of the interests of its bourgeoisie. Thus, an analysis of the IIRSA is carried out as a recent stage of South American integration strategies. In turn, it is discussed how the Brazilian sub-imperialist strategy and popular resistance are manifested in the Initiative through two investment projects: the Inambari dam in Peru and the highway over the Isiboro Secure Indigenous Territory and National Park in Bolivia.

Palavras-chave : Subimperialism; Brazil; Socioterritorial resistances; Regional integration.
