Abstract

Diachronic comparative analysis on social and demographic structure of the Argentine middle class.
Identify population-specific growth effects, changes in the dynamics, structure and spatial distribution of the application of the economic model during the adjustment period (1976-2002) and the post-convertibility (2003-2012) in the middle class. In the long term, this project proposes to empirically study the differentiation of the population by social classes, with emphasis on measurement and differentiation of the middle class between 1976 and 2012.
