Le processus de colonisation dans la province de Córdoba Argentine

The Colonization Process in Cordoba Province (Argentina). After providing some background information on Cordoba Province - main crops, farming material, transportation, market systems - , the author distinguishes three phases of colonization : before 1895, 1895-1903 and 1903-1915. Each period is then analyzed, considering such factors as types of colonization (official, private, spontaneous), development of agro-pastoral economy, land tenure and real-estate speculation, living and working conditions of immigrant peasants, colonization laws, etc. The conclusion is that the colonization process was mainly beneficial to the groups and companies who organized the immigration and monopolized the land, rather than to the immigrants themselves who remained economically disadvantaged and socially isolated
