CLAVIJO-MEJIA, Raúl Iván. Space Appropiation in La Serranía de Manacacías, Colombian Orinoquía. Territ. [online]. 2020, n.42spe, pp.217-246.  Epub Apr 16, 2021. ISSN 0123-8418.  https://doi.org/10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/territorios/a.7625.

This article analyses the space appropriation forms and their impact on essential elements of the socio-economic structure of the Puerto Castro and La Cristalina paths, of the municipality of San Martín de los Llanos, department of Meta. The study allowed the identification of substantial differences in the forms of spatial appropriation and the tools used by the actors that, over time, have had a presence in this area. The semi-structured interviews were applied between 2017 and 2018 to residents who inhabit the area since the first half of the twentieth century, both to property owners and administrators. The in-situ contact with the inhabitants and the visit to the places that marked the history of both paths allowed deepening the consequences of the forms of spatial appropriation in different historical periods, as well as their impact in territorial, productive, population, and land tenure structures.

Keywords : Agrarian territory; conservation territory; territorial knowledge; protected natural area.
