GRONDONA, Ana Lucia. Unemployment Benefits in Argentina. Reflections Upon an Absence (1890-1989). Soc. Econ. [online]. 2014, n.27, pp.99-128. ISSN 1657-6357.

This article -based on the study of different documents of the archives- proposes a research agenda on the history of unemployment insurance in Argentina. We will discuss different periods that should help grasp the different reasons for which this form of regulation was blocked at different stages of the development of labor markets in Argentina between 1890 and 1989. We analyze five conjunctures relevant for our problem: a) 1913-1915; b) 1930-1939; c) 1940-1949; d) 1962-1970; e) 1975-1989. Although the reasons for this absence varied, we point out some relevant issues throughout the different periods: the power balance between labor unions and employers, the impact experts have over the State and the general labor market regulations (in relationship with the international division of labor).
