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.

Analizamos 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.
