Este libro procura ser una síntesis compleja, y a la vez accesible, de la historia de la provincia de Córdoba (Argentina) entre finales del siglo XIX y la primera mitad del XX. A través del análisis de diferentes núcleos problemáticos -como las transformaciones sociales de la modernización, la emergencia de la "cuestión social" y la sociedad de masas, la consolidación de un mercado capitalista, el desarrollo del modelo agroexportador y los procesos de industrialización, la construcción democrática y la estructuración del Estado intervencionista, entre otros- se propone una mirada acotada y localizada sobre el espacio cordobés, sin perder de vista contextos más amplios.
Historians' task has always been to make sense of the world. This book presents selected papers dealing with the status of global history, cultural contacts between the continents over the centuries, the manifold construction and division of time, and with the use and misuse of history worldwide.
"A general discussion of the recent changes of historiography in different parts of the world has long been lacking. This book could serve to fill this lacuna, not least for the purposes of university courses. Two concluding chapters and an introduction bring forward general traits and specific characteristics."--BOOK JACKET.

En las últimas décadas, el estudio de las políticas sociales se ha intensificado y profundizado, proporcionando enfoques espaciales, temporales e interpretativos novedosos y construyendo miradas diferentes sobre las cambiantes relaciones entre el Estado y la sociedad a lo largo del siglo XX. En este marco, el presente libro aborda el proceso histórico de estructuración de las políticas sociales entre 1930 y 1943 en la ciudad de Córdoba, con miras a contribuir al conocimiento del proceso de construcción del Estado social en la Argentina desde una ciudad del interior nacional. Para ello, la investigación aborda la problemática de las políticas sociales a través de los diferentes actores que participaron en la distribución de bienestar en la ciudad, las organizaciones de la sociedad civil -entidades de beneficencia, mutualismo obrero y asociaciones barriales- y los gobiernos, provincial y municipal. En definitiva, a través de este estudio se busca responder a las preguntas sobre cómo y por qué se estructuraron las políticas sociales en la ciudad de Córdoba en el transcurso de esos años de fuertes convulsiones a nivel mundial.
