There are four chapters dedicated to Geopolitics in all its dimension, in which we aboard the topic, starting in the 19th century and the interest of powerful countries of that epoch for controlling a territory considered strategic for domination interests. Advertised as a development strategy and integration that would solve the problems of the 64 million people who inhabit the Mesoamérica region the Puebla Panamá Plan has not gotten the economical resources or the political capital for its practical development, and because of that, it has not reached over the speech of a six year .period government that will finish in 2006.
