Regarding the specific position occupied by Argentina within the hierarchical structure of the capitalist economy as a semiperipheral country, we focused on the cultural and geopolitical transformations that accompanied the putting into orbit of the two Argentine geostationary satellites ARSAT 1 and 2 –which are perceived today as national technological milestones–, the positioning of Argentina as a member of a select club of nations, and the component of popular geopolitics –as a constellation of images and stories that link these satellites to a collective achievement– that emerges from this process. We conclude that, as a contrast with the recent past of territorial disintegration, deindustrialization, and poverty that led to the 2001 terminal crisis, the ARSAT program promotes a process of Argentine territory resignification, its representations, and the imageries associated with the notions of spatiality and sovereignty.  \n\nAnalizamos desde una perspectiva geopolítica crítica la política de comunicación satelital durante dos períodos delimitados por las trayectorias de las empresas NahuelSat y ARSAT. A partir del lugar específico de Argentina en la estructura jerárquica de la economía capitalista como país semiperiférico, nos enfocamos en las transformaciones cultural y geopolítica que acompañó las puestas en órbita de los dos satélites geoestacionarios ARSAT 1 y 2 –percibidas hoy como hitos tecnológicos nacionales–, el posicionamiento de Argentina como integrante de un selecto club de naciones, y el componente de geopolítica popular –constelación de imágenes y relatos que vinculan a estos satélites a un logro colectivo– que emerge de este proceso. Concluimos que, como contraste del pasado reciente de desintegración territorial, desindustrialización y pobreza que derivó en la crisis terminal de 2001, el programa ARSAT impulsa un proceso de resignificación del territorio argentino, de sus representaciones y los imaginarios asociados a las nociones de espacialidad, extensión y soberanía. application/pdf http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rtt/article/view/7147 10.34096/rtt.i21.7144 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rtt/article/view/7147/6395 Revista Transporte y Territorio; Núm. 21 (2019): Geopolítica del Transporte; 6-27 1852-7175 ARSAT geostationary satelites geopolitics semi-periphery ARSAT Satélites Geostacionarios geopolítica semiperiferia Satélites, territorio y cultura: ARSAT y la geopolítica popular Satellites; territory and culture: ARSAT and popular geopolitics info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=transter&d=7147_oai
