THE PRESENT ARTICLE RECONSTRUCTS LANDSCAPE TRANSFORMATION IN THE VILLAGE of Quebrada Honda, Cogua-Cundinamarca, throughout the 20th Century. It analyses the cultural influences that underlay productive practices in the region and gives sense to resources appropriation, ecosystems management and the local community's strategies as opposed to agricultural modernization. In addition, it contextualizes the economic and political processes that frame the local dynamics giving rise to the landscapes transformation. Based on the achieved reconstruction, this article discusses some of the socio-environmental aspects of the current scenery, reflecting on the capacity of adaptation of local families, the importance of valuing their experiences within high mountain ecosystems and the reasons for their continued practice in these rural areas.
