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

Hacendados, Cabildo y "corraleros" : El acceso de los hacendados al abasto de carne a partir del estudio de dos estancias de la campaña sur de Buenos Aires (1785-1809)

Algunas tradiciones historiográficas señalaban que el mercado colonial de abasto porteño era controlado por un grupo de hacendados en acuerdo con el Cabildo de Buenos Aires. La fijación de precios debía, por lo tanto, favorecer a los grandes hacendados en detrimento de una población. Sin embargo, a partir del estudio de las cuentas de una estancia, es posible demostrar que incluso grandes hacendados se encontraban subordinados a un mercado regulado donde el eje de una puja por el beneficio de transferencias de valor se situaba sobre todo entre el propio Cabildo y los "corraleros", comercializadores que conectaban la campaña con los corrales de Buenos Aires

Descentralización, autogestión, gestión local. Estudio de caso de un municipio en La Pampa, Argentina

Los municipios, en los últimos veinticinco años, han cambiado sus roles. En la actualidad, los gobernantes locales asumen formas de gestionar que atienden a las crecientes demandas sociales de sus vecinos, redefiniendo las políticas públicas municipales. Parte de la tarea de gestión es el ordenamiento territorial como estrategia para orientar la distribución espacial del desarrollo, de acuerdo con los recursos disponibles, con el mejor uso que a los mismos se da en términos sociales, económicos y ambientales. Concretarlo implica cambios cualitativos importantes, adecuaciones en la gestión político-administrativa. En Victorica, La Pampa, la autogestión se perfila como una de las características más sobresalientes. La dinámica gestión de su territorio es ejemplo para otros municipios que intentan imitar el estilo. Los actores sociales son la clave del cambio.

Territorial assemblages and Governance : The example of the Taonaba project [Town of Abymes, Guadeloupe]

This article reports on an action research to support the urban community of Cap Excellence in Guadaloupe in its local sustainable development project. After summarizing the terms of the debate around sustainable development, and presenting the region, the search will be put back into the context of a more general approach of territorial* intelligence (TI). The limits of a local Agenda 21 in the form of a 'programmed action plan' is the chance to enhance the concept of TI with that of territorial assemblage. Our study area is the natural reserve of the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin of Guadeloupe, the second largest biosphere reserve designated by UNESCO in the archipelago of the Petites Antilles, more specifically the implementation of the Taonaba project, whose goal is to launch an ecotourism visitors' centre, operational at the end of 2012. Based on the analysis of a large amount of data, the article describes an evaluation tool for territorial assemblages for participative territorial governance. Our results were presented to local government officials in the Urban Sustainable Development Forum, which our group organised from 2 to 4 April 2012, in the district of Abymes/Pointe-à-Pitre
