Description: "Sugar, an important crop in northwestern Argentina supports a peculiar society composed of many small planters, a few powerful mill owners, strongly organized factory labor, and provincial political machines. Until recently, sugar was protected and subsidized by the federal government, but attempts to open the economy have disrupted this way of life, often with violent results. An important study for understanding provincial politics"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
