Resumen
En este artículo se realiza un análisis territorial de Limón a través de
una crítica hacia los proyectos que han sido plasmados en el territorio
y la forma como éste ha sido concebido. Además, se reflexiona sobre
algunas construcciones geográficas elaboradas desde relaciones de
poder hacia la provincia Limón, esto por medio de la revisión de una
serie de Geografías de Costa Rica, libros que han sido utilizados para
la educación y el conocimiento del territorio costarricense. A la vez se
presenta una forma alternativa de interpretar a esta región, como un
territorio cultural diverso.
A territorial analysis of Limón Province is made through a critical perspective of how this region was conceived and built throughout its history. We discuss about some geographical constructions and imaginaries made towards Limón from the capital, by reviewing a series of Costa Rican Geographies, books that have been used for education and knowledge of Costa Rican territory. An alternative way of interpreting Limón Province is presented, based on its culturally diverse territory and its possibilities.
