Durante la primera mitad del siglo XX, la Puna de Atacama tuvo para ciertos sectores del noroeste argentino una función geoestratégica para el desarrollo del comercio ganadero interandino, así como un alto valor por su potencial minero. Desde los primeros años de existencia de la jurisdicción del Territorio de Los Andes, la elite terrateniente salteña la transformó en el “patio trasero” de Salta. Este artículo planteará uno de los rasgos salientes sobre la forma en que se incorporó la Puna de Atacama al territorio de la Argentina a partir de 1900: su anexión, en la práctica, a la geografía económica y política de la provincia de Salta. La gravitación salteña es demostrada analizando varios hechos, como el emplazamiento de la capital territoriana, el manejo del aparato institucional por la dirigencia salteña y las decisiones de inversión en infraestructura, todas situaciones que reforzaron la primacía de Salta sobre Los Andes.

During the first half of the XX century, the Puna de Atacama had for some sectors of northwestern Argentina, a geostrategic role for the development of inter-Andean livestock trade, well as a high value by its mining potential. Since the early years of jurisdiction of the Territorio de Los Andes, the landed elite of Salta turned it into the "backyard" of the province. This article will present one of the highlights about the way in which the Puna de Atacama was incorporated to the territory of Argentina from 1900: its annexation, in practice, to the economic and political geography of the province of Salta. The gravitation of Salta is shown analyzing several facts, such as the location of the capital of the Territorio, the management of the institutional apparatus by leaders of Salta and infrastructure investment decisions, situations which strengthened the primacy of Salta on Los Andes. |
