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 the last decades, transformations in the rural sector set out challenges to think the current dynamics that underlies it; among other things, related to the production model that has been defined, to the processes that different stakeholders directly related to the activity have gone through, and to the socio-economic dynamics linked to the rural sector that unfold and their impact on local spaces. This paper reflects on what has happened in rural Argentina, particularly in the Pampas Region, in relation to these problems. The paper starts by considering some transformation processes that have taken place in the rural sector at a global level to analyse, then, the dominant trends of the rural sector in the Pampas region that allow us to affirm that a new model of agricultural development has been introduced. On the basis of various antecedents, the paper will then present a conceptual proposal to address the problem of the territorial dynamics of the rural actors, the economic aspects and their incidence on local spaces. This dynamics has not been studied specifically from this perspective, and emphasizes the economic-productive elements implied in the constructions, deconstructions and reconstructions of territories, resorting to the notion of capital circulation of the rural actors which constitutes a relevant point to understand the processes that emerge today in agricultural development.

"Mining is the main engine of development", is one of the most commonly used arguments in support of the activity. This paper is the product of comprehensive interpretive research, which aims to test this hypothesis, using extractive mining in San Juan, a province in the center-west of Argentina, as a case study. One of the key findings of this study is that high foreign investment in mining is not synonymous with development. To the contrary, mining creates growth which is concentrated, exclusive and unsustainable, and which undermines external commercial apparatus, displaces traditional modes of production and triggers a process of socio-environmental conflicts, causing irreversible ecological damage.

The financial and exchange rate crisis observed in Argentine at the end of 2001 showed the importance of understanding the factors that explain the evolution of the balance of payments and, in particular, of the current account. The objective of this work is to show recent developments in the theory of the current account and its application to the Argentine case. In the first place, short and long term correlations between national saving and domestic investment is considered through a model of a mechanism of correction of errors. Later, the paper analyzes the main shocks that affect to the current account in agreement with different theories. Finally, the paper shows the intertemporary approach of the current account. In this case, the paper considers a standard version of this approach and a model that makes flexible some of its main basic assumptions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work incorporates factual disagreements as a conceptual hinge between responsibility and responsiveness. Within this conceptual framework, I analyze the policy of debt relief carried out by the Argentine Government between 2003 and 2014. Based on this analysis, it is argued that, although there is a consensus that responsiveness is a positive attribute for democracy, its existence does not always become a valuable fact for the quality of democracy. In order for this to take place, responsiveness must be accompanied by the legitimacy of factual disagreements, which has not occurred in the analyzed period. This paper describes the existence of a deficient institutional performance within the National Public Credit Office to process and legitimize factual disagreements, which has prevented the government's responsiveness towards citizens to lead to an improvement in the quality of Argentine democracy.

In order to elucidate the role of financial capital in the dynamics of the Argentine economy between 2002 and 2012, this paper analyzes several aspects of the relationship between financial capital and the State. "Debt reduction" partially dismantled public debt as the backbone of speculative activity, although it maintained its profitability and priority position in economic policy decision-making. On the other hand, financial regulation contributed to keeping the mechanism of debt and did not significantly alter the central role played by financial capital. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Against the backdrop of global economic growth, the widening of technology gaps, and the adverse evolution of prices for industrialization, Argentina is one of the countries in Latin America that has seen the (partial and temporary) return of public policy to the economic policy agenda. This paper poses the hypothesis that in spite of the revival of industrial policy actions and instruments to promote technological capabilities and foster a framework of incentives favorable to industrialization, a new industrial policy has failed to emerge in light of weak coordination and the absence of a senior body in the hierarchy to implement it.

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]

This paper analyzes the relation between the country risk and its macroeconomic determinants for Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and Venezuela, during the 1998-2013 period, using a Markov- switching sur model estimated by Bayesian techniques. Two independent regimes for each country were identified. The first one, associated with periods of stability and favorable international conditions, in which the variables under consideration behave as reported in the literature. On the other hand, the second regimen temporarily coincides with periods of high domestic and international uncertainty. Our findings suggest that the changes in the analyzed relation depend on the origin of the uncertainty. If the uncertainty's source is associated with external shocks, such as international crises, the financial markets volatility gains relevance, while the solvency and liquidity variables are less relevant; if the causes of uncertainty are domestic, the latter are the key variables to explain the sovereign risk.

This paper aims to contribute to the current debate on (regional) development. It suggests that regionalist analyses and policies have turned a blind eye to certain dynamics that influence the performance of regional spaces. Based on a case study of Argentina (2001-2014) in a region that produces agricultural machinery (AM), we propose to make progress in opening up a more introspective view of the regionalist approach, considering: a) the role of the region-building process in the broader national and macro-political project, b) a description of certain extra-local factors that stimulated technological change and improved the regional demand for AM and c) a description of actions taken by the national State to promote the regional economic regeneration of AM.

This paper analyzes the principal characteristics of capital flight in Argentina since the collapse of the convertibility regime and the macroeconomic consequences of this capital flight. Using data on the formation of foreign assets, this article researched the factors that played a role in the most significant episodes of capital flight, which in 2011 obliged the government to enforce strong currency exchange controls to curb the depletion of Central Bank reserves.

This paper analyzes the economic impact of Peronism in the Nahuel Huapi region and reviews the material and symbolic aspects of this district, which borders Chile and is associated with both the existing national park in the region and the city of Bariloche. To this end, and in dialogue with the material processes of the period, self-recognition and links to other regions were analyzed. The contribution of this manuscript is its recognition that despite Peronism having been experienced as one of the most significant development shifts in the Nahuel Huapi region, and especially in the town of San Carlos de Bariloche, documents both provide evidence of continuity processes and discuss the existing account of a break.

Climatic, productive and economic variability have made the dwellers of Salinas Grandes (Catamarca) adopt diversification strategies for economic activities, implementing multiple use systems, due to the great diversity of environments and resources. The objective of this paper is to analyze the relationships between conditional variables and economic diversification, and to identify life strategies that have set the communities to adopt multiple use systems in Salinas Grandes. Rapid rural diagnoses were made over 81 families from 13 communities of this region. We calculated land use areas for each community, and made floristic censuses over five characteristic environments. With the obtained data, we built economic diversity and biodiversity indexes; we made regressions among the obtained variables. The farmers that raise cattle diversify less because they can capitalize of decapitalize depending on the situation. The ones that cannot perform this activity, due mainly to ecological conditions of their lands, must diversify their production, mainly by goat raising. Total land incomes depend basically on land area and not on vegetation diversity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper reviews allocutions, homilies and other sources of Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio's teaching, from the end of 2009 to the beginning of 2013; and it offers some keys of his social teaching, that can be summarized as an urgent call to undertake a serious socio-political commitment to build a common national project. During this period, Bergoglio, now pope Francis, criticized the handing over of the Argentinian economy to foreign interests, the increasing corruption and the social degradation of the country. He appealed to an examination of conscience in order to build a nation that all Argentinians can aspire to. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
