BAGENETA, José Martín. Partners in front of agribusiness: The integration of Avellaneda’s Agricultural Union (AAU) and the Argentinian  Cooperatives Association (ACA) (1990‐2010). Trab. soc. [online]. 2018, n.30, pp.243-268. ISSN 1514-6871.

The aim of this paper is to describe, analyze and interpret the institutional relationship that maintains the Avellaneda’s Agricultural Union (UAA) with its second-level organization, the Argentinian CooperativesAssociation (ACA) in relation withthe changes generated by agribusiness in the period of expansion on the marginal region of Great Argentinian Chaco (GChA)(1990-2010). The concepts of agribusiness territory, integration, autonomy and complementarity are articulated to study what happened. The hypothesis is that the integration of cooperative entities results a profitable organizational form for each organization in front ofthe territory of agribusiness. Onceanalyzed the trajectory of each organization, the historicity of the relationship is studied using qualitative historical documents, statistics and interviews. The purpose is to advance into the complexities of integration. A milestone of this solidarity with agri-business is in 2005 the installation of Puerto Vilelas (Chaco) and the subsequent links with their particular strategies and meeting points.
