De siderúrgica a turística : Breve historia ocupacional de la ciudad de Palpalá (Jujuy-Argentina)

The growth of Palpalá City (Province of Jujuy, argentina) since the 1940s, is linked to altos Hornos Zapla (ahz) the state-owned steel and iron company whose privatization in the early 1990s as part of the external three-sided opening, privatizations and deregulation which characterized convertibility, meant large changes in the local economic structure. In the 1950s, this city was identified by the town hall as 'mother of Industries' ('madre de Industrias'), whereas today, the municipal slogan is 'City of Tourism' ('Ciudad Turística'). Recovering the recent occupational history of this city meets the need to know the labor and socioeconomic reality of this urban area in the Province of Jujuy, about which information is rare. Although it is included in the Home Survey?s sample, it is shown in blocks, making the information very limited. It is paradigmaticin this city to study the means chosen to try to overcome the traumatic shock that ahz's privatization meant, to analyze the policies developed and evaluate their results, some years after their application. In Palpalá, a local development strategy was applied, with a strong impulse to micro-businesses, following, somehow, the model postulated at national level, what will allow us to know the local reality better, as well as the regional and national realities for its characteristics. The methodology used in this work ('From iron and steel industry to tourist city. Brief occupational history of Palpala city) was the bibliographic research of the rare existing studies, interviews to qualified informers as well as the use of secondary data sources, such as data from different national Censuses. To conclude, it can be said that due to the crisis of the 1990s and its state reducing plan, those who suffered its consequences less are, paradoxically, those who are still related to state jobs. In Palpalá, when ahz was privatized and the buyer company failed to fulfill its contract duly, leaving a great number of the local people unemployed, it was the municipal government who had to assume the responsibility of an answer ( in this case, through training, credit and/or counseling to micro-businessmen) In the last years, however, the possibility to work in informal activities has become important in Palpalá, with a high percentage of people working in city fairs selling different kinds of goods. although the change in the model in the recent years has allowed the reactivation in different areas, a preliminary evaluation is that the improvement does not seem to have reached the core of excluded and marginalized of the previous decade

Breve reconstrucción de la historia de la investigación en temas de la Educación de Jóvenes y Adultos en Argentina

Este artículo presenta una sintética reconstrucción del proceso de emergencia de la investigación en temas de la Educación de Jóvenes y Adultos (EDJA) en Argentina, con la creación del Centro Multinacional de Educación de Adultos (CEMUL) en 1971 a partir de un convenio con la OEA. Se destaca la importancia de la Dirección Nacional de Educación del Adulto (DINEA) del entonces Ministerio de Educación y Cultura así como la influencia de los organismos internacionales en la creación de las primera agencia especializada en investigación y formación en temas de la EDJA. También se indagan discontinuidades y reorientaciones en la producción de conocimiento en estos temas. Para la realización de este trabajo se recurrió principalmente al análisis de fuentes secundarias y primarias, estas últimas incluyeron normativas y documentos oficiales de las décadas del 60 y 70

Breve nota sobre a etimologia de Dioniso

This article aims chiefly to discuss the status quaestionis regarding the etymology of Dionysus. The main theories thereon are analyzed and a new connection is put forward between the name of the god and one of his characteristic activities -dancing. In view of this, some passages of the Rig Veda are pointed out which might strengthen the bond already suggested between Dionysus and the god Indra within the Indo-European tradition

La representación literaria del caos y la re-unificación de las Dos Tierras : Breve esbozo de dos textos literarios del Reino Medio

Parte del conocimiento y la comprensión que poseemos de las sociedades del mundo antiguo procede del análisis de los textos literarios. El eje estructurador es el derrumbe de los valores y las instituciones que organizaron la vida quienes habitaron el Antiguo Egipto en el paso del Reino Antiguo al Reino Medio. Analizaremos la Profecía de Neferty ylas Admoniciones de Ipuwer. Habrían sido elaborados durante el Reino Medio y poseerían connotaciones propagandísticas de legitimación y justificación de la toma del poder por parte de Amenemhat I y sus sucesores. Elaborados dentro de los círculos palatinos, poseen una marcada intencionalidad política
