Abstract

The different forms of circulation express different levels of spatial interactions. Understanding the topology of networks and their impacts on territorial organization becomes a cordial element in geographic science. In the globalized scenario, endowed with more and more fluidity and competitiveness, the forms of action of the capital have been expressing different contrasts in space through its selectivity. When analyzing the air flows between Brazil and Argentina, different levels of socioeconomic interactions are perceived, among them tourism, since in specific periods over certain years there has been intensification of flows and expansion of the offer of flights. Based on these premises, this text aims at analyzing the nuances resulting from such interactions between Brazil and Argentina, from the passenger air transport network, its evolution, organization and different forms of logistic strategies under the perspective of Transportation Geography.
