Diferentes trabajos han dado cuenta de sus características durante ese siglo y especialmente en la región de la Puna de Jujuy. Durante la etapa colonial, esta zona fue sede de una de las mayores encomiendas de la gobernación del Tucumán, cuyos encomenderos eran los principales terratenientes puneños. Es por esta razón que Madrazo (1982) enfatizó la existencia de una estrecha vinculación entre la encomienda de servicio personal con el surgimiento del peonaje por deudas y el sistema de arriendos que se desarrolló en el siglo XIX. Sin embargo, poco conocemos acerca de esta relación en áreas cercanas y con trayectorias históricas similares. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar algunas de las características del acceso a la mano de obra en las propiedades (privadas y comunales) de la quebrada de Humahuaca durante el siglo XVIII como forma de reconstruir la relación entre comunidades indígenas, forasteros y propietarios españoles.

Pero, ¿quiénes, cómo y por qué impulsaron el proceso orientado a alcanzar la distinción para la Quebrada? y ¿qué relación guarda esta designación con la dinámica turística en el lugar? Este trabajo tiene como objetivo indagar en los vínculos que se establecen entre el logro del reconocimiento patrimonial de la Quebrada de Humahuaca y la presencia del turismo en el lugar, teniendo en cuenta el accionar del poder político provincial, impulsor de la inclusión de la Quebrada en la lista de Patrimonio Mundial de la UNESCO.

  • Continuing Southern Right Whale Mortality Events at Península Valdés, Argentina

Probably due to the topography and currents of the Península’s large bays, most of the whales that die become stranded on the beaches, allowing for reasonably accurate mortality estimates. Systematic efforts to evaluate SRW health through post-mortem examinations began in 2003. Since then, 291 SRW deaths have been recorded, with peaks in 2005, 2007 and 2008. Ninety percent of beached whales were calves, and most were female. In 2007 and 2008, 83 and 96 whales died and stranded at PV in what are considered the most extreme mortality events ever observed in any baleen whale.
