LONGHI, Fernando. Spatial distribution of misery at household in Santiago del Estero and territorial processes in Argentina, 1991-2001. Pap. poblac [online]. 2011, vol.17, n.67, pp.177-207. ISSN 2448-7147.

Peasantry in Santiago composes one of the Argentinean groups where misery reached the largest proportions by the end of the XX century. In this work we analyzed the main Territorial processes occurred during the 1990's decade associated to the behavior of misery. In these said processes we enquired on the changes in the large masses of cultivations, livestock rearing, and surface of the agricultural exploitations and the dynamic of the population. As information sources we resorted to the National Censuses of Population, Household and Housing from 1991 to 2001, the Agricultural Censuses for the years 1988 and 2002 and the vital statistics of the intercensual period. The main results are related to the de-articulation between the growth of the surface cultivated with soybean and peasant economy in a context of heavy deforestation.
