El planteo de la idea de efecto de lugar en la obra de Pierre Bourdieu, constituye una herramienta conceptual que permite explorar la relación entre desigualdades espaciales y desigualdades educativas, más precisamente aquellas referidas al desigual acceso de la población a las instituciones educativas diferenciadas que dan lugar a la segmentación socioeducativa. El artículo aborda los planteos en torno a la reificación del espacio social y la vigencia de la noción de ganancia de localización en tanto aportes para la comprensión sobre cómo interviene la dimensión espacial en la segmentación socioeducativa, entendida ésta como la conformación de grupos o circuitos escolares.  Las desigualdades socio-espaciales y educativas son abordadas mediante la exploración de las configuraciones espaciales de las ciudades de Campana y Zárate (provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina) y una aproximación al estudio de circuitos educativos de escuelas secundarias, secundarias técnicas e instituciones de educación y formación para el trabajo a partir de la indagación en distintos factores que contribuyen a la diferenciación escolar, entre ellos la dimensión espacial. Una conclusión a la que se llega es que existen múltiples “efectos de lugares”, que son diferenciales dentro de una misma localidad, y dan terreno a que existan ganancias o desventajas de localización que inciden sobre las instituciones educativas y sobre los docentes y estudiantes que forman parte de las mismas. Bourdieu’s idea of the site effect is a conceptual tool for exploring the relationship between spatial and educational inequalities, more precisely those referring to the unequal access of the population to differentiated educational institutions that permit socio-educational segmentation. It could be considered a less addressed aspect of Bourdieu’s work the study of the relationship between physical and social space and the putting into play of the different capitals for the access and differential appropriation of places and public goods and services, including school institutions. It is the aim of this text to recover the triallectic of symbolic, social, and physical spaces. The article discusses the issues related to the reification of social space and the validity of the notion of location gain as contributions to the understanding of how the spatial dimension intervenes in socio-educational segmentation. The school system is organized into segments according to the social classes they receive, fulfilling a function of social distribution, and legitimizing the differences that correspond to each origin group. These segments guide different social groups towards different types of education -for example, between general/ academic and technical education and between private and public education-; and towards different circuits or groups of educational institutions that resemble each other, but with dissimilar characteristics between the paths regarding buildings, human and material resources, access to transportation and environmental conditions that surround them.Socio-spatial and educational inequalities are addressed by exploring the spatial configurations of the cities of Campana and Zárate (Buenos Aires province, Argentina) and with an approach to the study of educational circuits of secondary schools and technical schools and vocational training institutions. This is based on the research of different factors that contribute to school differentiation, including the spatial dimension. In the construction of the educational circuits, the location of the educational institutions, and the barriers faced by the population were taken into account. Through the research carried out, it was possible to reconstruct three different circuits in each city. The most prestigious institutions belong to the circuits located in the geographic and symbolic centers of the cities, while the institutions with the greatest disadvantages are in the peripheral areas and devoid of physical accessibility conditions and basic services. It is concluded that there are multiple “site effects”, which are differentiated within the same place and allow access to the advantages or disadvantages of the place that affect educational institutions, and teachers and students.

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.

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. Se sostiene la idea de que existieron múltiples posibilidades para la ganadería diversificada y las explotaciones mixtas en los mercados coloniales.Palabras clave: Ganadería, unidades productivas, producción agrícola,mercados coloniales.Livestock and mixed production units incolonial Buenos Aires, 1726-1759AbstractThis research aims to characterize the production units at rural Buenos Aires between 1726 and 1759, from extinction of bighorn cattle and dairy farms and the division of the eastern Buenos Aires province between Buenos Aires and Montevideo, to the separation of rural space between jurisdictions of the town halls of Buenos Aires and Lujan and the consolidation of the different practices as collecting and breeding livestock in such farms. 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.

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.

The following article is based on a qualitative research developed in three Buenos Aires City and Buenos Aires Province high-schools that define themselves “elite educational institutions”.  Our purpose is to analyze the pedagogical work conducted by these institutions in relation to how they monitor their students’ trajectories and its examination systems. On the one hand, we identify strategies of personalization that account for an institutional set-up with close links between teachers and students, which enables them to overcome the hurdles to a system based on international exams. On the other, strategies of autonomy devolve to students’ responsibility for their own results, encouraging them to compete amongst themselves. These differences are connected to the academic selection systems established by each of the institutions. By inquiring into these dynamics, we have a better understanding of how these institutions function and how they contribute to the processes of socialization and reproduction of specific segments aimed at occupying elite positions. This paper also addresses the role played by the teachers as symbolic facilitators who, through their work, contribute to the selection of those groups.

The content analysis of the concepts «educational space» and «educational environment» is performed. It is proved that the concept of «educational space» is considered as: territory; integration system; subsystem of social space; pedagogical reality; system of pedagogical factors and conditions of personal development; a set of educational institutions, educational processes, and educational environments that operate in a particular area; the field where the interaction of educational environments occurs. It is proved that the concept of «educational environment» is considered as the specifics of the relationship that has developed in the institution, innovative technologies and assessment of the components of successful self-realization of the individual; a set of conditions, opportunities, and resources for personal education; the interconnection of conditions that provide human education; institutional form, which is characterized by interconnected conditions that affect human education; the environment where the formation of personality (professional development of the applicant) happens. It is determined that the concept of «space» in its meaning is broader than the concept of «environment». A model of educational space in Ukraine has been developed, which includes educational institutions as manufacturers of educational services, which are involved in the functioning of three markets: the market of educational services for which they develop their educational programs; the labor market for which highly qualified personnel (graduates) are trained; market of scientific and technical products and services where they offer the results of their scientific and technical activities. The proposed model of educational space identifies the subjects and objects of the market of educational services, the labor market, and the market of scientific and technical products and services. The modern international practice of the concept of educational services is investigated. The components of the formation of modern educational space in the context of the knowledge economy are determined. The following methods were used in the study: theoretical generalization, analysis, and synthesis, comparative analysis, observation. The practical significance of the results of the study is to determine the relationship of elements of the modern educational space of Ukraine in the context of the knowledge economy, analysis of methodological approaches to the formation of modern domestic educational space.

This chapter discusses how consumer culture affects the depiction and meaning of the natural world in the work of American realist writers. These writers illuminate the relationship between natural environments and the social expectations of consumer culture and reveal how such expectations transform natural space into what Henri Lefebvre terms “social space” implicated in the processes and power dynamics of production and consumption. The representation of nature as social space in realist works demonstrates the range of consequences such space holds for characters. Such space can both empower and oppress individuals, and rejecting or embracing it can deepen moral resolve, prompt a crisis of self, or result in one’s death. Characters’ attempts to escape social space and consumer culture also provide readers with new strategies for coping with their effects.
