El puerto de La Plata: de miradas locales y regionales hacia un horizonte atlántico

Abstract

This historiographic balance presents the first results arising from our thesis in History. We propose a review of the bibliography that addressed the port of La Plata, considered by virtue of constituting a first period of analysis (1883-1925), from which we investigated its economic history. We propose to revalue this object of study with the aim of giving it a new place in La Plata historiography by locating it in the Atlantic field from a new perspective of analysis. We are interested in investigating the historical complexity that concerns the port, as an economic, social, and political, framework that unites a region with global dynamics.
