ABSTRACTThe research describes the advance of two research projects: PIP 2013-2015 “Innovation and cities in Information Society: processes, stakeholders and outcomes in three cities of Buenos Aires Province” and the PICT 2015-2018 “Local Development and Productive Innovation in Information Society”, both coordinated by Dr. Finquelievich. Their main objective is to analyse the relationship between cities and ICT-based socio-technical innovation processes. Medium-sized cities have become important agents in national innovation systems due to their potential to generate knowledge networks among key players. We have chosen three cities in Buenos  Aires Province: Bahía Blanca, Tandil and     La Plata. A qualitative methodology has been used, utilizing in-depth interviews to key  informants.RESUMENEl trabajo describe los avances de los proyectos PIP 2013-2015 “Innovación y ciudades en la Sociedad de la Información: procesos, actores y resultados en tres ciudades de la provincia de Buenos Aires” y el PICT 2015-2018 “Desarrollo local e innovación productiva en la Sociedad de la información”, dirigidos por la Dra. Finquelievich, en los que se analizan las relaciones entre las ciudades y los procesos de innovación socio-tecnológica centrados en las TIC.Las ciudades intermedias están cobrando importancia en los sistemas nacionales de innovación por sus potencialidades para generar redes de conocimiento entre los actores clave. Se seleccionaron los casos de Bahía Blanca, La Plata y Tandil, Provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina.Se empleó una metodología cualitativa, mediante el uso de entrevistas en profundidad a informantes clave que permitieron caracterizar la estructura de redes de innovación multiactorales en las ciudades estudiadas y su relación con los procesos de innovación socio-tecnológica.

The Relationship

The chapter outlines the theoretical approach used in this research. Based on the relationship between China and Argentina, the chapter proposes a study of the links at the sub-national level between both states, specifically the ties between the Buenos Aires Province with Chinese counterparts, the municipality of Bahia Blanca with Dalian, and the municipality of General Pueyrredón with Tianjin, which is constituted as an innovator subject in the bilateral relationship and where a lack of recent research has been found. Conclusions will be presented to demonstrate the huge potential to increase the economic, political, cultural, educational, and commercial ties at the subnational level between Argentina and China provinces and local governments and to analyze from the IR discipline the participation of the Asian country in the Argentine sub-national international politics.

This paper reflects on the precautions to be taken into account when addressing the study, from the point of view of the social sciences, of cultures and communities. This is done through ethnographic research in a neighbourhood (barrio) of migrants from an indigenous community in the province of Chaco, in northern Argentina, who have migrated to the city of La Plata (in Buenos Aires province) and have settled on its periphery. The article starts from the idea that ethnicity comes into play, situationally, as a resource rather than as a distinct and immutable feature. Even when it is necessary to describe how notions like culture and ethnicity act in practice and what meaning they have for the actors, social researchers should not  historicize them in the specific contexts in which they are brought into play.Keywords: culture, ethnicity, indigenous community, ethnography, ArgentinaRésumé: Cet article met en évidence les précautions et les enjeux à prendre en considération en sciences sociales lorsque l’on aborde les questions culturelles dans les communautés. Cet article met en évidence un travail de terrain de type ethnographique dans un quartier (barrio) de La Plata (province de Buenor Aires) où se trouve une forte concentration de population migrante d’autochtones en provenance de la province de Chaco, dans le nord de l’Argentine. Plutôt que d’approcher l’ethnicité dans une perspective essentialiste et d’en faire une caractéristique immuable de l’identité, cet article s’inspire d’une approche relationnelle. Plutôt que de tenter de figer le sens de notions telles « ethnicité » ou «culture », cet article met en evidence l’importance de reconstruire le sens de ces notions à partir des données contextuelles et du sens qu’elles revêtent pour les acteurs.Mots clé: culture, ethnicité, communauté indigene, ethnographie, Argentine

Argentine History

William A. Harris ably served the United States as chargé d'affaires at Buenos Aires from June, 1846, until October, 1851, during one of the most critical periods in Argentine history. When he went to his post of duty, Argentina was suffering both from external and internal strife. France and England had intervened in affairs in the Río de la Plata, and had blockaded the coast. Relations between Argentina and two of her neighbors, Paraguay and Brazil, were strained. The government of Buenos Aires was fomenting civil war in Uruguay. There was mounting tension between Buenos Aires and the back country provinces. Public discontent prevailed within Buenos Aires Province. Foreign nationals residing there became increasingly apprehensive about the future of their business enterprises. The heavy hand of the violent caudillo, Juan Manuel de Rosas, Governor of Buenos Aires Province, was felt throughout the entire area of the Río de la Plata. His position was so strong that in most respects he controlled affairs of the whole Argentine Confederation, comprising fourteen provinces.

ResumenEsta investigación se propone caracterizar las unidades productivas del Buenos Aires rural entre 1726-1759, desde la extinción del ganado vacuno cimarrón y las vaquerías, y la división de la campaña bonaerense oriental entre Buenos Aires y Montevideo, hasta la separación del espacio rural entre las jurisdicciones de los cabildos de Buenos Aires y Luján, y la consolidación de las distintas prácticas como recogidas de ganado y de la cría este tipo de hacienda en las estancias. A partir de estadísticas y descripciones sobre padrones rurales, sucesiones y testimonios del cabildo, se desarrollan y ponen en discusión temas como la evolución de la ganadería vacuna, la cría de otras especies, sus características y alternativas económicas, la relación con la agricultura y la existencia de distintos tipos de unidades productivas.

From statistics and descriptions of rural records, inheritances and testimonies from the townhalls, the study develops and discusses issues such as the development of beef cattle, breeding of other species, their characteristics and economic alternatives, the relationship with agriculture and the existence of different types of production units. The idea is that there were many opportunities for diversified livestock and mixed farms in colonial markets.Keywords: Livestock, production units, agricultural production, colonial markets.Pecuária e unidades de produção mistas em Buenos Aires colonial, 1726-1759ResumoEsta pesquisa tem como objetivo caracterizar as unidades de produção de Buenos Aires rural entre os anos 1726-1759 rural, desde a extinção do gado de carne de vaca selvagem e as leiterias, e a divisão da campanha bonaerense oriental entre Buenos Aires e Montevidéu, até a separação do espaço rural entre as jurisdições dos cabildos de Buenos Aires e Luján e a consolidação das diferentes práticas como a coleta de gado e da cria, neste tipo de fazenda nas estâncias.

Though Argentina has long been synonymous with trackless pampas and teeming livestock herds, this common image requires some qualification. Before the late nineteenth century, when refrigerated transport made possible a large international market for Argentine beef, cattle played a less important role in the economy of the Río de la Plata than is usually assumed. Except for Buenos Aires province, where stockraising was predominant even in the colonial period, ranchers often had to struggle hard and insistently to find their niche in the overall commerce of the region. Grazing conditions were excellent in many areas of the Río de la Plata, but because the port of Buenos Aires always enjoyed a near-exclusive control over external trade, theporteñoseffectively blunted the development of any stockraising that threatened to compete with their own exports. In the northeastern provinces, this resulted in a cattle industry marked by technological backwardness and erratic growth. The chaotic politics of the post-independence era reinforced these conditions, though reform-minded ranchers and government officials consistently tried to improve provincial standards of stockraising.

The Relationship

During the post-Independence period, Buenos Aires province engaged in a republican-authoritarian experiment in which the relations between dominant and subaltern were altered and redefined. The ascent to power of Juan Manuel de Rosas and the federalists meant an increase in the violence meted out by the state against its political and military opponents. On the other hand, the diffusion of a market economy created the basis of contractual relations across a variety of social fields and institutions. This was true with regard to relations between masters and servants in the household, between officers and soldiers within regiments, between rural residents and justices of the peace, between ranchers and peons at the estancia. Though coercion did not disappear, the power to coerce found limits because of the very expansion of market relations. To address these changes, in their complexity and diversity, this article uses the concept “repertoires of coercion”. The concept may be useful to analyze and compare relations of power in multiple social or institutional spaces. In addition, the article addresses the question of the relationship between coercion and market culture, suggesting that in a situation of labor scarcity, and the military mobilization of the subaltern classes, contractualism tends to pervade relations of power, even those previously based upon coercion.

Cecilioides acicula (Müller, 1774), family Ferussaciidae, is native to the Palaearctic region but has been dispersed around the word by human activity. Here, we report the presence of this introduced species in La Plata city, Buenos Aires province, Argentina. This snail is largely subterranean and frequently is found in old graves in association with skeletal remains. Our samples were collected from sediments from the Municipal Cemetery of La Plata, Buenos Aires province, Argentina.
