Resumen
SANCHES JUNIOR, Jefferson de Lara y CAMPOS, Cristina de. The foundation of the Instituto Nacional de Tecnologia Agropecuaria (INTA) and the changes on the agricultural and argentinian policy at the 1950’s. Andes [online]. 2020, vol.31, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 1668-8090.
The 1950s are known as a moment of a deep stagnation crisis in Argentinian agriculture, which originated in the 1930s. To overcome this situation, one of the main proposals was the creation of an agricultural research institute which laid down its functioning on Green Revolution, centered both at the expansion of the agriculture technology standards from the capitalist countries to the periphery, and research into agricultural extension towards to producer. Thus, the Instituto Nacional de Tecnologia Agropecuaria (INTA) was created in 1956, an institution oriented in its beginnings by the ideas of economic recovery proposed by the government that followed the coup d’état that removed President Juan Domingo Perón from office. On this paper, we propose an analysis and discussion about the causes underlying the founding of INTA as a reflection on the transformations generated over decades in the Argentine countryside and in politics, consolidated in the 1950s. In addition to this, we present the existing concern about the construction of a narrative of both, the historical moment and the memory they wanted to evoke from it.
