This article is based on the research process entitled Conflict as a factor of territorial transformation in the East of Caldas: a contribution to strengthening the bonds of cooperation and institutional trust, executed in eight municipalities of the Department of Caldas, Colombia. Different expressions of conflict emerged that evidence the contradictions occurred for and in the territory. As an objective, we propose to show, on the one hand, the methodological importance of the typologies as an instrument to order reality, and on the other hand, to advance in the theoretical construction on the multi-territoriality, derived from the process of territorial transformation that has taken place in the region. Using type categories as a methodological resource, the research allowed to conclude that social conflict, understood as a relational category, promotes socio-spatial changes based on the contradictions that occur between the different individual or collective actors.

Keywords : Tipology; conflict; territory; multiterritoriality; space.
