Se centra en el contexto guatemalteco, pero también expone argumentos más amplios sobre la importancia de la infraestructura en la formación de los Estados y las identidades nacionales después de la independencia centroamericana. Explora el concepto de infraestructura como poder estatal desde distintos ángulos, al contextualizar proyectos específicos en su espacio geográfico y social. La relevancia de la infraestructura no solo debe ser visto en sus conexiones externas sino también a nivel de los nexos internos, donde la infraestructura era vinculada con la agricultura, la mano de obra, la población y el territorio. De este modo, la historia de la infraestructura proporciona una excelente forma de conectar las historias locales con las nacionales e internacionales.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract This article examines projects related to the construction of roads, railroads, harbors and canals, which were carried out or attempted under the federal and state governments of Guatemala between 1823 and 1837. While the article focuses on the Guatemalan context, it also makes broader arguments about the importance of infrastructure in the formation of states and national identities after Central American independence. It explores the concept of infrastructure as state power from different angles by contextualizing specific projects in their geographical and social space. Infrastructure projects were significant not just in the context of external connections and transnational trade, but were also embedded in local histories which link them to histories of agriculture, labor, population, and territory. In this way, the history of infrastructure provides an excellent way to connect local histories with national and international ones.]]></p></abstract>
