GIRALDO-HOYOS, Martín. "El que vende tierra come tierra": changes and continuities in estates in the Amaime river basin, Valle del Cauca, Colombia, 19th century. Perspectiva Geográfica [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.2, pp.13-34.  Epub 06-Abr-2020. ISSN 0123-3769.  https://doi.org/10.19053/01233769.10137.

This article explores the dynamics of land tenure and use in the Cauca river valley during the second half of the 19th century, focusing on estates in the Amaime river basin -a tributary of the Cauca River-. In order to elaborate on the narrative about the alleged productive and spatial stagnation of this region, spatial transformation of certain estates are discussed, thus showing their systematic spatial and productive mutation during the historical process of 19th-century liberalism. For this, various documentary sources were searched, including correspondence, historical cartography and notary documents. A historical geographic information system was used to georeference notary data for the spatial analysis and visualization of land tenure changes within the study period. From different track records, the cases of La Concepción and La Torre estates prove that significant processes of productive reorientation and social diversification have taken place in the valley since the 1850s.
