Abstract

OSATINSKY, Ariel. Poverty and its Relation with the Problems of Employment in Catamarca and Tucumán, Argentina, at the End of the XX Century. Estud. demogr. urbanos [online]. 2013, vol.28, n.1, pp.53-92. ISSN 2448-6515.  https://doi.org/10.24201/edu.v28i1.1439.

In 2001 Catamarca was the province with the lowest level of poverty in the whole argentinien north. On the opposite Tucumán, whose economy was the most dinamic of the region, had a superior porcentage of poor homes.

Taking for granted a strong link between economical processes and poverty, and that labour difficulties are an important component in that relationship, the article analizes how the lower levels of poverty in Catamarca´s population were consequence of being less affected than Tucuman’s population by regresive productive transformations and the employement problems.

Keywords : poverty; economical transformations; labour problems; Catamarca; Tucumán.
