In this paper we will be analyzing, from social studies with a gender perspective, two court decisions about violence against women that were recently made in Neuquén, Argentina. The guiding purpose of this paper is to highlight the tensions -between tensions and resistancesthat exist in the institutions and between the public sector (Court) and private sector (Lawyers) when interacting as agents of justice, in judicialized cases where the victims are women.

This paper analyzes the trajectory of two indigenous communities from Neuquen through one century, focusing on the paths followed to access and remain in their territories, as well as the highs and lows in relation to their persistence as mapuche communities. The main goal was to explain how they achieved their current state of community reconstitution, and their relationship with politics at a provincial level, specifically in the context of the development of a new political line within the Confederación Mapuche de Neuquén at the beginning of this century. The article studied the factors that, from the genocide to the native peoples on, conditioned their possibilities of staying cohesive in a context of struggle with dominant territorialities: public policies on access to land, designed by the National State first, and then by the province, the actions of different agents in office, the mapuche political praxis and the bond they established with their supracommunal organizations. The heterogeneity of situations in the space of Neuquen led to define two cases to develop the analysis: Paicil Antriao, in the southern Andes area, and Campo Maripe, in the central eastern plateau zone.

In this paper, I will focus on the making of interviews as a work strategy. I do not propose, then, to reflect in the abstract, but based on the historical research I produced from the interviews. I will attend the representative dimension of the concept of citizenship. I will expose the lessons learned in the process of constructing my research problem about how women became political citizens in Argentina between 40's and 50's. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Public green spaces (PGS) on the shores of the Limay River in Neuquen Metropolitan Area (AMN, for its acronym in Spanish) can represent tools for water management. For the design of such instruments, it is important to know the local dynamics of hydrometeorological threats. The aim of this paper is to analyze, from a historical perspective based on the digital written press, the occurrence of events related to hydrometeorological threats in the AMN and, most precisely, around the PGS located on the coast of the Limay River for the period 1999-2020. 131 journalistic articles were surveyed and the information collected was validated through hydrometeorological databases. The methodology classifies events according to origin and nature, as well as characterizing them according to their physical characteristics; consequent damages in urban, periurban and rural areas; actors from different jurisdictions and adopted actions. Before and during the events soft measures prevailed while hard measures prevailed after them. Specifically, the consequences in EVP result in hindrances for its exploitation by users. Historical records provide initial, useful and comprehensive information for the analysis of the incidence of water processes in cities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
