SUAREZ-GOMEZ, Jorge Eduardo; RAMIREZ-CARDENAS, Emmanuel  e  NIETO-LOPEZ, Jaime Rafael. Invisible Borders in Medellin’s Communes 16 and 70 (2008-2013): Power, Territory, and Resistance. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.2, pp.384-401. ISSN 1657-8031.  https://doi.org/10.21500/16578031.3825.

This article analyses the way in which the phenomenon of invisible borders was developed in the Medellin’s communes 16 and 70 between the years 2008 and 2013. It was the moment in which the urban armed conflict was intensified in the city. With this objective in mind, social, Institutional, and academic actors, who experienced these violent clashes were interviewed, from different positions. These voices were analyzed from theoretical discussions around power, territory, and resistance, which allowed to explain the territorialization of a violence that became the imposition of imaginary borders on the population.
