    In 2016 a large catch-up* in infrastructure investments is being confirmed by several Latin American countries, driven by the knowledge that economic growth relies heavily on quality infrastructure. The transport sector is going to firmly benefit from the expected increase in public and private funds. The continent being one of the most urbanized regions in the world, a large focus goes into urban rail projects: Mexico, Guatemala, Paraguay, Colombia, Chile, Brazil… are planning new projects for metro, light rail, high speed rail, monorail and passenger trains. One country is clearly taking the lead: Argentina. Besides boosting its investment climate and PPP laws, Argentina made public the ambitious 8-year 14.187 m USD investment in Buenos Aires` commuter network. Related key projects are the city`s RER and tunneling of the Sarmiento line. The Latin America Passenger Rail Expansion Summit will bring together local and international stakeholders, government officials, operators, developers, architects, consultants and equipment plus solution providers to discuss the current rail sector. *300.000 m USD is what Latam should be investing annually, versus the 150.000 m USD spent annually on infrastructure in the previous 20 years. http://latinamerica.railexpansionsummit.com OUTLOOK SOME OF THE TO BE INVITED DELEGATES Argentina foresees 14187 m USD ANPTrilhos INCOFER, Costa Rica Ministerio de Transporte y Comunicaciones, Peru 14187 investment in AFE Uruguay VLT Carioca Consortium Directorio de Transporte Público Metropolitano, Chile suburban network.

On the one hand there was a process of rural depopulation from localities in the province of Buenos Aires (similar to the process of urbanization across Latin America). On the other hand, there was the break up of the railways that led to the cessation of passenger services to hundreds of localities inside the province of Buenos Aires. This study compares the two variables -localities in the interior of the province of Buenos Aires that lost population and railway lines which recorded decrease in the provision of passenger transport services.

  • “Access to Land”: the State and the Evolution of Landholding Patterns in the U.S
    Rev4-01 22/11/01 12:27 Página 11 Peter Fleer and Hans Werner Tobler* ➲ “Access to Land”: The State and the evolution of landholding patterns in the U.S. and Argentina in the 19th century Introduction When we consider the development of the United States and Latin America during the “long” 19th century in a comparative perspective, certain fundamental differences and contrasts stand out regarding the respective political, social and economic condi- tions. There is a progressive democratization of the political system in the North as oppo- sed to lasting oligarchic rule in the South; greater social mobility in the U.S. in contrast to rigid social structures in Latin America; and dynamic economic growth and differen- tiation in the North as compared to initial stagnation and subsequent one-sided export- orientation of the economies of the South. Even though this very general assessment would certainly need to be further elaborated regarding regional and sectoral differences, it nevertheless emphasizes some essential characteristics of the different developments north and south of the Rio Grande, which also depended to a considerable extent on the different landholding conditions in both regions. Certainly, after the decline of the tradi- tional southern plantation economy in the U.S. in the wake of the Civil War of 1861- 1865, landownership patterns differed greatly in the North and the South. While in the U.S. small and middle-sized family farms shaped the countryside, in Latin America the agrarian sector was dominated far into the 20th century by large landholdings, with their concomitant features of multiple labor, tenancy and sharecropping conditions.

As harbingers of historical modes of production and the strain imposed by globalized, stratified urban environments, not only those living and working on the margins of urban communities, but the very institutional structures tasked with securing their livelihoods, continue to suffer from fragmentation and isolation.

  • Cómo Quebrar a Un Sindicato La Represión De La Huelga
    TESTIMONIOS AÑO 2 Në 2 ± INVIERNO 2011 WWW.REVISTATESTIMONIOS.COM.AR ISSN 1852 - 4532 --------------------------------------------------------------------- CÓMO QUEBRAR A UN SINDICATO. LA REPRESIÓN DE LA HUELGA DE LOS FERROVIARIOS ARGENTINOS DE MARZO DE 1992, VISTA POR TESTIMONIOS JUDICIALES Fabio Nigra* Resumen: El trabajo analiza un conflicto laboral producido en 1992, con base en un juicio promovido por la empresa FEMESA contra delegados de La Fraternidad, a fin de excluirlos de la tutela sindical. En particular se pretende pensar sobre la utilidad y validez de las declaraciones de los testigos, entendiendo a éstas como Historia Oral. Si bien las declaraciones tienen límites precisos, establecidos por lo que es posible preguntar, la forma de contestar y en particular la de trascribir los dichos, la cercanía de lo asentado en el papel con la desgrabación de una entrevista semiestructurada, permite interpretar al testimonio como una fuente oral, diferente a la organizada por el investigador, pero conducida a través de preguntas específicas. Palabras clave: Testimonio Judicial – Fuente oral – conflicto sindical Abstract: This work analyzes the trial promoted by FEMESA, a railway union, in which it tried to exclude delegates of “La Fraternidad” from the union tutelage by March, 1992. Particularly we are to consider the statements of the witnesses as useful and valid sources, so as to consider them part of Oral History. Even if these statements have clear limits, bound to what is allowed to ask in this context, the awareness to perceive the manner in which the answer is constructed and the free interpretation to transcribe the sayings, liken this to a semi-structured interview.
