CAMARGO MARTINEZ, Abbdel. Some spaces of occupation. The agro-industry-Protestant relationship in the formation of a border region between Mexico and the United States. Estud. front [online]. 2018, vol.19, e017.  Epub 12-Nov-2018. ISSN 2395-9134.  https://doi.org/10.21670/ref.1817017.

This paper proposes to analyse the interrelation of two dynamics of territorial occupation based on American expansionism in an agroindustrial region of northwestern Mexico. The paper will analyze, from a longitudinal perspective, the colonization processes through economic development and the establishment of a Protestant religious model in the productive model and in the regional settlement of one of the most important agro-exporting zones of the northwest of Mexico. Despite limitations in the method, the work excels in connecting complex dynamics of globalization that are usually analyzed separately. The work shows the development of a colonial sense in the dynamics of territorial occupation of companies linked to agro-industry and the development of a Protestant religious field in the borders; at the same time, it identifies the dispute over the possession of a regional identity that has not remained untouched by conflicts between the local settlers.
