| Sumario: | In this article we seek to shift the angle of analysis towards the ways in which Argentine workers, through their union and political organizations, received, processed and offered programmatic responses to the unquestionable opening moment of the turbulent decade of the 1930s: the crash of the New York stock exchange in October 1929. The article is structured in three sections: in the first, we will address the readings that were made about the immediate impact of the crisis in October 1929, its causes and global explanations; in the second, we will focus on the analysis of its consequences, focusing not only on the voices referring to the local repercussions (for example, those related to the problem of unemployment) but also on the global echoes awakened by the crisis; finally, we will focus on the programmatic elaborations that they put forward as a response to the crisis and on the identification of the dense international network that influenced those interpretations and that linked the local labor movement with global structures. This is based on a large and varied body of documentation that includes national newspapers, party documents, and union sources, among others. |
