DJENDEREDJIAN, Julio. The cost of Modernization: changes in Land and Labor inputs in Entre Ríos, Argentina, between 1830 and 1880. Am. Lat. Hist. Econ [online]. 2019, vol.26, n.3, e976.  Epub 06-Set-2019. ISSN 2007-3496.  https://doi.org/10.18232/alhe.976.

This article tries to show how the relationship between land and labor costs, in the long run, hit on a rural economy devoted to extensive cattle ranching and sheep breeding. Tensions developed in boom years, and distortions developed through relative use of factors, will be crudely exposed by a strong economic, political and social crisis, during which it was very difficult to find short-term solutions. Moreover, the crisis itself would have at least in part been generated by these tensions. Anyway, this research wants to show that it is not useful to find simple explanations to the actions of actors, regarding capital investment and innovation.
