| description | The study of occupations and mobilities in rural towns introduces us to the relationship between agriculture and rurality, and to "the" rural as non residual space in front of "the" modern and "the" urban. A related question has to do with the centering/des-centering of the agro, either by monoactivity or by the main occupation in case of multiple occupations, as well as the form taken by the relations between countryside (rural scattered) and town (rural aglomerated). On the other hand, it relates to the nature of the rural world as social space, differentiated and built, a place of life and work. From a glance that makes visible the role of the agro in the rural, we show diverse occupational nets and displacements from case studies which exemplify the issues raised: two rural towns with variability in agro development and the social organization of agriculture. On the one hand, it is a rural town with high population growth located in an area of agricultural expansion, with company scale organization, predominance of wage relations of production and agricultural occupations, mostly important presence of seasonal migrant workers. On the other hand, a rural town located in a region historically marginal and slow down, sparsely populated, in an area of plateau dedicated to extensive livestock breeding where there coexist large farms and peasant units; recent population growth, traditional agro occupations and pluriactivity also traditional. The empirical research show the diverse spatial movements, the occupations and their forms of combination, the principality of the agro activity and related ones, and the consequent identity character of those towns. The findings lead us to raise the issue of the breakdown of the single occupation and of the complexity of the link countryside - town. The nowadays concern of the agro in the rural, and of the rural "living" towns, are matters that new rurality and globalization issues have been sometimes overshadowed. |

El estudio de las ocupaciones y movilidades en pueblos rurales nos introduce en la relación agricultura y ruralidad y en lo rural como espacio no residual frente a lo moderno y urbano. Una cuestión vinculada tiene que ver con el centramiento / descentramiento de lo agrario, ya sea por monoactividad o por principalidad de la ocupación en caso de pluriactividad, como también con la forma que adoptan las relaciones entre campo (rural disperso) y pueblo (rural aglomerado). Por otro lado, se relaciona con la naturaleza del mundo rural en tanto espacio social, diferenciado y construido, y como lugar de vida y de trabajo. A partir de una mirada que visibiliza el papel de lo agrario en lo rural, mostramos situaciones diversas de entramados ocupacionales y desplazamientos a partir de estudios de caso que entendemos ejemplifican las cuestiones planteadas: dos pueblos rurales con variabilidad en el desarrollo agrario y en la organización social de la agricultura. Por un lado, se trata de un pueblo rural con alto crecimiento poblacional localizado en un área de expansión agrícola, con organización empresarial a escala, predominio de relaciones salariales de producción y ocupaciones agrarias, mayoritariamente tradicionales, e importante presencia de trabajadores migrantes estacionales. Por otro lado, un pueblo rural de una región históricamente marginal y deprimida, escasamente poblada, en área de meseta dedicada a la ganadería extensiva donde coexisten grandes estancias y unidades campesinas; con crecimiento reciente de la población rural aglomerada, con ocupaciones agrarias tradicionales y pluriactividad también tradicional. Se muestra en la investigación empírica la multiplicidad de movimientos espaciales, las ocupaciones y sus formas de combinación, el centramiento de las actividades agrarias y conexas, y el consiguiente carácter identitario de esos pueblos. Los hallazgos nos llevan a plantear el tema de la ruptura de la ocupación única y la complejidad en los nexos campo-pueblo, También, la vigencia de lo agrario en lo rural, y de pueblos rurales "vivientes", temas que en abordajes sobre la nueva ruralidad y la globalización han quedado algunas veces opacados. 2011-10-18 2022-03-16T17:59:01Z 2022-03-16T17:59:01Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://www.mundoagrario.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/v12n23a03 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/26248 spa https://www.mundoagrario.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/v12n23a03/172 https://www.mundoagrario.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/v12n23a03/173 application/pdf text/html Centro de Historia Argentina y Americana Mundo Agrario; Vol. 12 No. 23 (2011) Mundo Agrario; Vol. 12 Núm. 23 (2011) Mundo Agrario; Vol. 12 N.º 23 (2011) 1515-5994 |
