| description | During the second half of the XXth century, Argentina went through the last attempts at a policy of long time tradition, known as agricultural colonization. Usually, lands in the pampa zone were selected, with a traditional productive and agro-export relevance. Nevertheless, certain periurban areas of the cities of Buenos Aires and La Plata became of interest because of their highly productive soil, their location near major urban centers, and their capacity to house families. These areas have not been studied carefully and need to be explored. With this study we look into the situation of the families that lived in this speciic context, addressing their multi-ethnic origins, trajectories, work methods, and social practices. With this purpose, we selected two communities: “La Capilla” (Florencio Varela, southern zone, Gran Buenos Aires) and “Justo José de Urquiza” (La Plata, capital city of the province). We found that these communities were consolidated by the formation of formal and informal societies, characterized by the participation of the families and subjects who contributed to the community through their roles and practical knowledge. It was found that children played a particularly important role as social subjects, articulating the different spaces in which their families lived. |

During the second half of the XXth century, Argentina went through the last attempts at a policy of long time tradition, known as agricultural colonization. Usually, lands in the pampa zone were selected, with a traditional productive and agro-export relevance. Nevertheless, certain periurban areas of the cities of Buenos Aires and La Plata became of interest because of their highly productive soil, their location near major urban centers, and their capacity to house families. These areas have not been studied carefully and need to be explored. With this study we look into the situation of the families that lived in this speciic context, addressing their multi-ethnic origins, trajectories, work methods, and social practices. With this purpose, we selected two communities: “La Capilla” (Florencio Varela, southern zone, Gran Buenos Aires) and “Justo José de Urquiza” (La Plata, capital city of the province). We found that these communities were consolidated by the formation of formal and informal societies, characterized by the participation of the families and subjects who contributed to the community through their roles and practical knowledge. It was found that children played a particularly important role as social subjects, articulating the different spaces in which their families lived. En la segunda mitad del siglo XX, la Argentina experimentó los últimos ensayos de una política de larga tradición, la colonización agrícola. Generalmente, se seleccionaban tierras en la zona pampeana, vinculadas al tradicional perfil productivo agroexportador. No obstante, ciertas zonas del periurbano bonaerense y platense fueron objeto de interés por su capacidad de generar alimentos fácilmente ubicables en las ciudades cercanas y radicar familias, sin embargo, poco es lo que se ha indagado sobre estas últimas. En el presente estudio nos proponemos indagar sobre el carácter multiétnico de sus orígenes, sus trayectorias, modos de trabajo, y prácticas de sociabilidad en estos particulares espacios, para lo cual seleccionamos los casos de las colonias “La Capilla” (Florencio Varela, zona sur del Gran Buenos Aires) y “Justo José de Urquiza” (La Plata, capital provincial). Encontramos que las colonias se consolidaron por la formación de asociaciones formales e informales como espacios de sociabilidad, caracterizado por la fundamental participación de las familias y de los sujetos, que aportaban al entramado desde sus roles y saberes. De modo particular, los niños, como sujetos sociales, lejos de ser periféricos o marginales, cumplieron la función de articular los espacios en los que sus familias se radicaron. Pendant la seconde moitié du XXe siècle, l’Argentine a vécu les dernières tentatives d’une politique de longue halène: la colonisation agricole. Généralement, on choisissait à la Pampa des terres à vocation productive pour l’agro-exportation traditionnelle. Cependant, certaines zones du périurbain de Buenos Aires et La Plata ont étés convoités à cause de leur capacité de produire des aliments et abriter des familles. Comme dans cet article nous nous proposons d’étudier les origines multi-ethniques de ces familles, ainsi que leurs trajectoires, modes de travail, et pratiques de sociabilité, nous avons choisi les cas des colonies dites de “La Capilla” (Florencio Varela, au sud du Grand Buenos-Aires) et “Justo José de Urquiza” (La Plata, capital provinciale). Ces colonies se sont consolidées à travers la formation d’associations formelles et informelles qui sont devenues des espaces de sociabilité, caractérisés par la participation des familles et des individus, qui ont mis à proit leurs rôles et savoirs. De manière particulière, les enfants, en tant que sujets sociaux, loin d’être périphériques ou marginaux, ont permis d’articuler les espaces dans lesquels ces familles se sont établies.
