Sumario:This paper revisits the lines of analysis that have differentiated the high income of the export boom in Argentina and its development –defined as the combination of human capital, technical knowledge, physical capital and institutions–. It underlines the stages of growth and stagnation, and social and regional differences. It discusses the effect of growth on development, in relation to other countries that have enjoyed stronger development than our case. Following Schiaffino, it considers the role of regional inequalities and the limited growth of human capital in this process.
