Three food production logics: Are there alternatives to agribusiness
Departing from the global development of ‘agribusiness’, three distinct logics of production can be identified in the agricultural sector and in food production in particular: 1) peasant, 2) agribusiness, and 3) farmer or Chacarera (in Argentina). This last logic of production, in our hypothesis, maintains some interesting characteristics that have not yet completely disappeared but are at risk of disappearing in the medium term. This typology as…
Latin America, new ruralities, old and new collective action
ECLAC characterises the six-year period from 1998 to 2003 as the “lost six-years” for the region. In this sense, they refer to the poor performance of the main economic variables and recall what was known at the end of the 1980s as the “lost decade”. The neoliberal discourse argued that, after the structural reforms put in place during the 1980s and 1990s, economies would grow and popular sectors would receive the spilling-over effects of that gr…
Social Sciences and Rural Studies in Argentina during the 20th century
This work intends to provide a broad overview of social science contributions in the study of Argentinian agrarian processes and rural contexts. It is intended as a way of organising the literature without too much of a focus on its theoretical or methodological underpinnings.

De las fincas y las casas a las rutas y las plazas: Las protestas y las organizaciones sociales en la Argentina de los mundos "rururbanos". Una mirada desde América Latina
La crisis institucional que se hace visible en la Argentina el 19 y 20 de diciembre de 2001 fue precedida por una década de protestas sociales. A diferencia de otros tiempos, en estos años estas acciones se fueron desplegando por todo el territorio incorporando a nuevos sujetos, nuevos repertorios de protestas, nuevas estéticas y nuevas demandas. Este trabajo aborda estos procesos de transformación de la Argentina en el marco de las grandes trans…
Movimientos sociales y protestas en los mundos rurales latinoamericanos: Nuevos Escenarios Y Nuevos Enfoques
Cuando el mundo agrario paracía haber entrado en la etapa agroindustrial, con aplicación de altas tecnologías e inexorables desplazamientos poblacionales, la cuestión de la tierra y del acceso a ella o la lucha por conservarla, se convierten en la América Latina atravesada por las políticas neoliberales, en problemas de primer orden. El trabajo trata de mostrar que esta nueva centralidad de las luchas por la tierra es una situación de fines de si…
Crisis and Agrarian Protest in Argentina: The Movimiento Mujeres Agropecuarias en Lucha
The Movimiento Mujeres Agropecuarias en Lucha (Agricultural Women in Struggle Movement-MML) is an agrarian movement led by women that emerged in Argentina in the mid-1990s (Giarracca and Teubal, 1997). Developing in a region noted for grain and cattle exports that borders the rich pampas, the movement emerged from the spontaneous actions of a group of farmers against the banks' auctioning of their land and agricultural machinery to collect their …
