In the aftermath of the financial crisis that broke out in 2008, new terms to talk about sustainable development started to emerge: the "green" economy and "green" growth. Some countries supported their usage and others did not. The literature witnessed the recrudescence of the debate on the relationship between economic activity and taking care of the environment, divided into three stances: degrowth advocates, "green" growth backers, and the growth-agnostics. This paper dives into the different "green" terms, paying special attention to the case of Argentina. Unlike in previous papers, which have analyzed country interventions in international forums, the methodology here was to search the web pages of the most relevant local players. The most traditional terms ("sustainable development") were strongly predominant, and the concepts of "green" economy or "green" growth were few and far between. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In recent decades, renewable energies have become increasingly important at the global level, with a significant impact on the sustainable development of various nations. Although multiple papers have examined the efficiency of policies and instruments to promote renewable energy sources, the majority have disregarded the fact that the context in which policies are implemented determines how well they perform. This paper analyzes renewable energy development in the electricity market in Argentina, paying special mind to the contextual conditions in which the policies were designed and finding that in recent history, it is precisely these conditions that constitute the main reason why renewable energies have such a low degree of penetration in the electrical power system in Argentina.

The present paper describes how indigenous leaders revert their subordinate position trough their local and ethno-political practice, according to different negotiation instances. The following reflections arise from the ethnographic work with a group of diverse indigenous communities established in the municipality of Almirante Brown of the Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires, who since the beginning of the 2000 year have been protagonizing a visibility and local ethno-political organization process.

The question of purity in language has been a common topic in the fields of language ideological debates in the Spanish-speaking world. In this paper, we propose an analysis of the various conceptualizations on linguistic correctness in the work of Ricardo Monner Sans in order to elucidate the links between his linguistic theory and his position on language policy. In that sense, we assume that these conceptualizations should be analyzed as a consequence of a more general consideration about linguistic usage and purity. This consideration seeks a regulatory intervention on the linguistic practices of society based on philological knowledge. Thus, the dimension of usage is divided into a common usage which corresponds to the widespread use in community, and correct usage, that which has been legislated by philological knowledge and which is, for this reason, the criteria for linguistic correction on which the ideal of a homogeneous linguistic community is based.

This paper analyzes the uses of the social network Facebook by popular libraries in La Plata, Berisso and Ensenada (Argentine). After a bibliographic review on the subject, we expose the methodological procedures employed to identify which institutions have an account on this social network and then the main uses they make of the tool in question. The uses by the libraries are analyzed according to several variables: The number of followers, the frequency and type of posts, and finally, the quantity and quality of the comments, the characteristics of the interaction with the environment, among others. In the results, a quantitative analysis of the established variables, shows an atypical case, who presents higher number of followers, greater frequency and number of postings and more interaction with the members of its community. The conclusion shows the late arrival of these libraries to Facebook, which places them in a learning period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recent tensions in the current accounts of Argentina have reopened the debate regarding external constraints on growth (ECG). In 2003-2013, export growth was slightly lower than it was during the convertibility era, but a major decline in the income elasticity of import demand mitigated the ECG. However, the effective growth rate was higher than that imposed by the ECG, according to Thirlwall's law, which led to the deterioration of the trade balance and growth. This was due to the trade deficit in manufactured goods of industrial origin (MIO), in light of technology dependence in capital goods and inputs. This paper analyzes the evolution of ECGS in Argentina at both the global and sector level, aiming to determine which MIO sectors had the greatest impact. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

One of the most decisive ways in which the global economy and power relations were transformed at dawn of the twenty-first century was the rise of China as a major power, as well as the consequent influence the country has been able to exercise over peripheral nations. Although the majority of administrations in Latin America have rejected the policies once hailed by the Washington Consensus, it is striking that they have largely accepted a new system of asymmetrical relations with another major world power, which is fostering the reprimarization of the productive structure in Latin American economies. Thus, beginning with the case of Argentina, this paper explores the path to what is now known as the Beijing Consensus, with an emphasis on a characterization based on the analysis provided below.

Global order is currently synonymous with absolute rationality that operates redesigning territories and places based on capital interests, through what Karl Marx called "original or primitive accumulation" and what David Harvey calls "accumulation by dispossession". In this paper, we analyse the situation in Argentina during the period 1990-2012, in light of that system of ideas, through the use of five case studies: privatisation of state-owned enterprises; external borrowing and banking globalisation; hydrocarbons exploitation; GM agriculture; and metal mining. Under the rise of neoliberalism, the wave of privatisation transferred the public heritage to the market sphere, giving rise to: the rapid growth of public debt and foreign ownership and concentration of the banking system, the loot of the Argentine subsoil reserves of oil and gas, the land and property concentration, the transgenic crops boom, native woods deforestation, peasants and indigenous crisis, gold, silver and copper mining boom, the electricity and water theft, remittances of strategic non-renewable resources to world market and local communities dispossession of environmental heritage and the right to health.

This article analyzes the funerals organized by the Argentine National State from 1906 to 1914. These funerals were considered as rites of passage and as public feasts through which the regime honored their great men as well as their own merits. This paper deals with the peculiar characteristics of each funeral, although it lays emphasis on their common features and particularly on grasping the similar political message given by the State. It looks at the pedagogic role that the government elites attributed to these funerals for the sake of order, civic mindedness and republican austerity. State funerals also made way for public and sometimes private work related to memory and posthumous celebration. The last section of the article speculates about the possible reasons why the bodies of these "great men", acclaimed by the State and by a significant part of the population at the time of their death, do not enjoy cult status or are objects of deliberate manipulations neither in the 20th century nor at present.

Since 1870, a prolific production of lexicographic instruments registering lexical singularities began in Argentina. The awareness of this peculiarity led to the elaboration --thus following a Hispanic American tradition-- of complementary and contrastive dictionaries of different modalities. On the one hand, descriptive works were published that collected ruralisms, indigenisms, regionalisms (both Americanisms and provincialisms, or localisms), and Argentinianisms. On the other hand, some normative works emerged that collected barbarisms and censored their use, on account of their deviation from the peninsular Spanish variety. This paper studies the relations among the different stages of the dictionarization process and several dictionary-making modalities. To this effect, we analyze those dictionaries that included the Argentinian variety of the Spanish language, published between 1870 and 1910, by taking into account two aspects: a) the different conditions of the dictionarization process; and b) some cuts of segments selected from several domains of the lexicographical discourse (paratext, macrostructure, microstructure). First, this study intends to demonstrate that the monolingual dictionary is a discursive, historical and ideological instrument. Second, the analysis of the lexicographical discourse allows us to observe that these dictionaries operate for the construction of the national imaginary within the process of formation and consolidation of the modern national state.

Religious pilgrimages to the high Andes take place periodically in the Humahuaca region of northern Argentina. Although these processions are formally dedicated to the Virgin and saints of Catholicism, they take place in a mountain landscape that has been traditionally sacred in Andean religiosity. This paper describes the high altitude pilgrimage to Punta Corral from an ethnographic and ethnoarchaeological perspective, focusing in the use of the mountain scenery in the context of the diverse rituals that configure this particular collective religious experience. The Punta Corral pilgrimage is a syncrethic ceremony which combines elements of popular catholicism in Latinoamerica with traditional Andean rituals of probable pre-hispanic origin.
