Abstract

This paper aims at analyzing the construction of the Argentine geopolitical imaginary about the People’s Republic of China, drawing from the Deep Space Station in Bajada de Agrio, Province of Neuquén, and the differences between said imaginary and the one constructed regarding Europe, based on the Deep Space Antennae in Malargüe, Province of Mendoza. In order to trace the construction of this geopolitical imaginary, an analysis was carried out on statements appearing in newspapers, both national and from the country’s capital, between 2009 and 2016 (Clarín, La Nación, Perfil and Página/12). These journalistic documents will be studied, described and analyzed to understand the building of the imaginary, selecting those which deal with the subjects of this paper.
