GALARZA, Antonio. "A New Port for Buenos Aires": The Mouth of the Salado River as an Alternative to the Port Blockades of Rio de la Plata (1830-1850). hist.crit. [online]. 2014, n.53, pp.83-107. ISSN 0121-1617.

This article presents an analysis of the commerce that took place at the mouth of the Salado River, which was born from the war with the Brazilian Empire (1825-1828) in an alternate port to the one in the provincial capital of Buenos Aires. By delving into sources that have not been explored much by investigations on this subject, we study the various economic activities that took place in this new port-transportation, freight, import, and export- between 1830 and late 1850. Simultaneously, we examine the problems that the need for control over these activities generated for the authorities.
