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

Extranjeros y poder municipal en la campaña bonaerense : Alcances e influencias en el control del poder municipal en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX

Este trabajo analiza el papel de los inmigrantes en el régimen municipal en la campaña bonaerense. Se indaga la relación entre los extranjeros y un poder local marcado por la dinámica de los avances fronterizos y la construcción de nuevos espacios económicos y sociales. Analizaremos los inicios del régimen en la década de 1850, la posición legal que los extranjeros habrían de ocupar y el papel del Estado provincial controlando esos mecanismos de representación. Se examinan los resultados de las elecciones municipales de 1886 en 16 partidos, con la intención de dimensionar los índices de participación que registraron las colectividades extranjeras

La participación ciudadana para la mejora de la gestión local : Realidades, mitos y desafíos sobre los Presupuestos Participativos

Las concepciones sobre el fenómeno participativo son amplias y generan varias posiciones. Diversos autores coinciden en que el municipio, por ser la cara del Estado más próxima a los ciudadanos, aparece como un lugar privilegiado para el desarrollo de políticas públicas participativas, contribuyendo a una gestión más transparente, eficiente, inclusiva y democrática. Esta cercanía permitiría una participación de los actores locales en los procesos de desarrollo comunal, posibilitando que diagnostiquen sus problemas, participen de instancias de decisión, elaboración y evaluación de las políticas públicas. Por otra parte, se advierte que mediante las políticas de participación el Estado traslada sus responsabilidades a la sociedad y se emplean como medio para la construcción artificial de consensos y manipulaciones políticas. Este artículo indaga acerca de los fundamentos, las metodologías de implementación y los resultados de cuatro casos de Presupuesto Participativo (La Plata, San Fernando, San Miguel y San Martín). Los ejes de análisis indagan acerca de la caracterización de los proyectos surgidos de esta política, los cambios en las modalidades de gestión local y el tipo de participación de la sociedad. Se utilizaron entrevistas en profundidad semi estructuradas, observaciones, estrategia de investigación documental sobre fuentes secundarias de información elaboradas por los municipios (página web, normativa, documentación institucional, folletería, estadísticas) y trabajos académicos elaborados por otros investigadores.

Política pública en el desarrollo de la juventud rural

La política pública es fundamental para cumplir con el propósito de atender los problemas colectivos a través de la negociación colectiva. En el medio rural se expresa en toda su amplitud, como agenda de formulación, de ejecución y de evaluación ajena a los actores municipales. De esta forma, este artículo tiene como objetivo comprobar los procesos, condiciones y efectos que genera en la población que las recibe, las acepta y se adapta a ellas. Desde el enfoque territorial, se encontró que la política pública y algunos programas dirigidos a los jóvenes, se centran en la juventud urbana; mientras que los jóvenes rurales desconocen las políticas públicas y los programas que son creados o aplicados a ellos. Las instancias de gobierno municipal, registran una falta de atención a los jóvenes, por la escases de estructura administrativa y de recursos económicos, que profundizan la ausencia de coordinación y comunicación entre los tres niveles de gobierno y la sociedad civil; causando que la duplicidad de programas con recursos limitados e insuficientes se sumen a los demás factores que limitan la atención de los jóvenes de la Sierra Norte de Puebla.
