RAUSCH, Gisela Ariana. Urban planning and infrastructure in violent times: Santa Fe city (Argentinian) during the last military dictatorship. Folia [online]. 2019, n.36, pp.27-50. ISSN 0325-8238.  http://dx.doi.org/10.30972/fhn.0364046.

Large infrastructures and territorial plans were considered by the ideology of Developmentalism as technical solutions to problems objectively defined. This so-called neutrality stems from the modern assumption about techno-scientific neutrality, and it has overshadowed the intensely political status of the aforementioned infrastructures and territorial plans. It also allowed their promotion by different political sectors without significant changes in the projects. The article proposes an historical analysis of two State projects which extended over several decades of the 20th century, with major boost during the last military dictatorship (1976-1983). In general, we aim to highlight the political and historical status of technical objects. In particular, we intend to outline the specific strategies of political and symbolic appropriation displayed by the military dictatorship over the two projects.

Palabras clave : Planning; Infrastructure; Dictatorship; State projects.
