Abstract
This paper proposes an interpretation of imperialism’s topology based on the semiotic model of Yuri Lotman. We try to explore some of the spatial transformations caused by the occupation and organization of geopolitical strategies from the nineteenth century on. Our proposal is based on Lotman’s fundamental topological model but adds other elements of analysis.
