Trayectorias de la Agricultura familiar periurbana en Santa Cruz, Argentina

Abstract

El artículo es una breve recapitulación del trabajo desarrollado para la tesis de maestría en Trabajo Social de la UNLP, titulado “La agricultura familiar periurbana en Santa Cruz: historia, marginalidad y transformaciones territoriales”. Aquí, se retoman algunos elementos de la investigación para reconstruir las experiencias hortícolas familiares y periurbanas en la provincia de Santa Cruz en dos periodos fundamentales: 1970/1990 y 2000/2015, haciendo especial énfasis en la institucionalización de la Agricultura Familiar como sujeto político. El trabajo pretende ofrecer un análisis situado, reconstruyendo las trayectorias sociales y productivas del sector en relación con su organización productiva, sus vínculos con el Estado, las políticas de desarrollo y los organismos de ciencia y técnica, y sus estrategias de resistencia frente a las transformaciones estructurales introducidas en los 90.
