Abstract
The study of Iquique’s Bolivian neighborhood allows one to identify labor linkages and economic interactions that give rise to social border practices and are expressed in mobilities in the territory that do not always imply establishment or settlement in a place within the place of destination. The neighborhood thus becomes a border trade device and part of a circulatory territory in which development gaps, salary differences, and the labor market call effect explain the circulation of people for commercial and labor reasons that go beyond the diplomatic litigation between Bolivia and Chile.
