The Brazilian borderline twin-cities are spatially contiguous urban aglomerates
discontinuous territorially. Their typological diversity is related to borderline porosity border and
constraints for conurbation between twin cities parts. Strategic for
transnational and cross-border integration processes, their multiscale interactions with the
urban network and regional circulation, relate to their functional specialization according to floes type and intensity. The hypothesis is
that there is a positive correlation between these processes and changes in spatial system self=organization
that informs interfaces and exchanges across territorial boundaries. The case of the twin cities of Uruguaiana (BR).and Paso de Los Libres (AR),an important
MERCOSUR gateway in cargo volume allows the hyothesis testing concerning
changes in the spatial configuration under conurbation and functional centrality typification that emerges from spatial diffusion
patterns of specialized services related to cross-border and transnational flows and multi-scale interactions
