It also provides a view of the current narrative about the desert in countries where it comprises a vast part of the national territory, in the northern area and in the borders with Peru and Bolivia (Chile) and with States United (Mexico). Based on that, the text also highlights the on the similarities between the desert and the border and describes some views ideasabout the countrie mentioned.
