GARCIA HERRERA, Sandra Yanneth. Verticality and Horizontality in the Configuration of "Sabana Occidente" as a Dry Port of Bogotá. Territ. [online]. 2019, n.41, pp.197-222. ISSN 0123-8418.  https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/territorios/a.6312.

Both categories verticality and horizontally, raised by the Brazilian geographer Milton Santos, enable to illustrate and understand relationships between the global order and the local and regional development. Under the capital expansion process, they characterize as asymmetric relations, where Latin-American cities arrange for capital circulation. From this approach, it has been proposed that current dynamics in the western part of Bogotá Sabana are derived from the competitiveness and internationalization of economy, and the Bogota metropolization process. Thus an essential dry port for the country is being configured, which promises economic growth for the country and the region from the institutional and business view. Nevertheless, adverse impacts and problems are already beginning to show.
