La alianza entre Chile y Bolivia entre 1891 y 1899. Una oportunidad para visitar la teoría del equilibrio

The existence of a bolivian policy since the ending of the XIX century until the beginning of the XX century only recently has attracted the attention of the specialists and generates some questions that have not been solved in a good manner by international relations historiography. In this case which is the intelligibility within the "bolivian policy" in the design of Chilean exterior policy? The author sustains that only within a dynamic conception balance of power it can be understood, against of the analysis that privileges a static vision of the same. Based on that, the author suggests that it can be a wider perspective of the alliances based in the equilibrium theory, the most characteristic of International Relations theory.
