PIRIZ, María Inés; RINGUELET, Roberto  y  VALERIO, María del Carmen. Nuevas movilizaciones culturales rurales: la fiesta de "Santa Luisa Vive". Intersecciones antropol. [online]. 2001, n.2, pp.89-101. ISSN 1850-373X.

This article presents us with an analysis concerning "Olavarría" Town Hall (Buenos Aires Province, Argentina). Its main purpose consists in showing the changes in the small rural areas of the "Pampean Region" (the inhabitants' adjustments and reactions) connected to the global and regional economic changes. We have specifically analyzed the historical period of local development as well as the conclusion of the festivity known as "¡Santa Luisa vive! which is part of the national celebrations of the Independence Day (july 9th) in Santa Luisa Village. We have outlined the event and looked at its elements considering the different strata that took part in it. In the same way, we have made an interpretation of this special occasion as a complex structure of sense: a symbolic interaction of both cohesion and social differentiation, and as a means of negotiation and culture-political mobilization.
