Abstract

The problem to be analyzed in this paper refers to the changes of frontier territory between Brazil and Uruguay that arise after the creation of regional development strategies by these countries aimed at their development. In order to do so, a comparative analysis was carried out between selected policies in Brazil and Uruguay, in order to detect the convergence of their objectives, and different studies and indicators were presented that show the regional development policies in the border territory of these countries. It was verified that the delay of the northern region of Uruguay and the southern region of the state of Rio Grande do Sul has been accentuated over the years.
