Departments, knowledge and technicians for a provincial State: from agronomist to a lencinismo public official, Mendoza, 1918-1930
Abstract
The approaches on government departments and their bureaucracies allow shred the dynamics and actors that make up a State in a constant process of transformation and complexity. From this perspective, and attending to the particularities of a provincial State, in this paper, we focus on the trajectory of an oenologist and agronomist engineer Leopoldo Suárez, who would become the epicenter of a core of technicians and professionals who supported and legitimized the economic, social and political project of the Unión Cívica Radical lencinista in Mendoza between 1918 and 1930. We hope that the reconstruction of this trayectory will provide empirical elements to reflect on the relationship between knowledge production, technicians and State in a local and regional space, in a period when this relationship was not even strengthened.Downloads
