This paper investigates the cumulative production of knowledge about the development of Latin America, in general, and Argentina, in particular, from the case of Economic Development, in the period 1958-1975. The author proposes, through a conceptual theoretical analysis, that the accumulation of knowledge is evidenced by gradually posing new analysis variables and questions. Between 1958 and 1959, a central problem was the transformation of an agrarian productive structure into an industrial one. Between 1961 and 1969, the above is assumed, and includes social and political aspects of Latin American underdevelopment. Between 1970 and 1975, the magazine publishes discussions on dependency and on some specific experiences of underdevelopment, condensing problematizations and findings from the two previous periods.

The political-economic process that Argentina went through between 2002 and 2015 can be called neodevelopmentalist. It was characterized by a change in macroeconomic policies that, until 2008, promoted an economic recovery, with emphasis on industry and job creation. This article sustains the argument that neodevelopmentalism was the program of the industrial fraction of the power bloc, which sought to reproduce itself based on its own characteristics of dependence. Thus, its scope was determined by its capacity to appropriate value flows that would guarantee its expanded reproduction, which was in tension with other social classes-centrally, the popular classes and the agro-exporting fractions of the bloc in power. The article offers a periodization of neo-developmentalism based on the dynamics of accumulation and disputes over legitimization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The vocational and occupational decision is one of the important development tasks that adolescents have. In this way, the purpose of the present investigation was to evaluate the relationship between occupational motivations, especially parental dependence, and perceived support and negative interactions with parents and peers. For this purpose, an intentional sample of 651 adolescents, of both sexes, aged between 16 and 20 years, who attended secondary school in six public and private schools in Paraná, Entre Ríos, Argentina, was obtained. The participants answered the CUMO questionnaire of occupational motivations and the Furman and Buhrmester Inventory for parents, friends and siblings. We found high levels of motivation for job satisfaction and anxiety towards the future and low levels of altruism. High levels of parental support were found, mainly love and trustworthy alliance; High levels of support for siblings and friends were also detected. The results showed low levels of negative interactions, especially in the bond with friends. The dependency for men and women was explained by 36% and 39% by the perception of the links with parents and peers. Conclusions explain the implications of these findings for vocational guidance.

The aim of this paper is to analyze how do the recipients of social crime prevention policies are illustrated, particularly under the concepts of self-worth and dependence, in Argentine during the first decade of the new century. We try to know the ways in which the old question of "danger classes" is re-elaborated on our days. Specifically we try to associate such issue whit the ideas of work and life conditions. We use a qualitative methodological approach to analyze the social crime prevention policies in Argentina during the first decade of the new century. We argue that such interventions stressed in different ways the concepts of self-worth and cut dependence: On the one hand enable a rightful self-reliance's space, regarding the protection of the rights of targeted youth; on the other hand other processes enhance self-responsibility, regarding the neoliberal transformation of social policy.

In Arturo Roig's works, the basis for critical and participative pedagogy can be observed within the framework of a philosophical project oriented toward Latin American liberation. His pedagogical writings refer to historical experiences of transformation in the Argentinean university system. In them, formal academic hierarchies are transcended so that students and teachers can learn together in a common, interdisciplinary effort. The experiences analyzed illuminate some educational processes of the Argentinean neoliberal university. In this context, Roig's proposal maintains total relevance as an instrument for struggle and a basis for an encouraging a look toward the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
