Capacidades estatales e implementación de las políticas públicas: el caso del Programa Cambio Rural en la comarca andina del paralelo 42 entre 2005-2024

Abstract

In a context of strong transformations in Argentine society regarding the logic of linkage between the State and society through public policies, this paper analyzes a rural development policy with a long trajectory, which emerged in the 1990s and recently ended. From an essentially qualitative logic, and with the case study as the main methodological tool, the implementation process of the Federal Productive Reconversion Program, better known as Cambio Rural, is analyzed, focusing on what happened in the Andean Region of Parallel 42. It shows how the implementation stage, often relativized in the public policy cycle, is extremely relevant in terms of the possibility of strengthening state capacities in the territory.Capacidades estatales e implementación de las políticas públicas: el caso del Programa Cambio Rural en la comarca andina del paralelo 42 entre 2005-2024State capacities and implementation of public policies: the case of the rural change program in the andean region of the 42nd parallel between 2005-2024.
