AGUILAR, Paula Lucía. Home, Family and Social Science: Traces of Frédéric Le Play in Argentina a between centuries. Trab. soc. [online]. 2018, n.30, pp.371-390. ISSN 1514-6871.

The article systematizes a set of quotations to the works of Frédéric Le Play (1806-1882) in between XIXth and XXth centuries and analyzes them in relation to the specific forms adopted by the debate on the so-called social question in Argentina. The text has four sections. First, a semblance of the work and trajectory of Frédéric Le Play, reviewing the most usual forms in which his work was included in the historical account of Sociology. Second, it considers the references to Le Play and his work in Argentina in the last decades of the nineteenth century within the discussion between liberalism and Catholicism. Third, the article highlights the elements of his perspective considered at the beginning of the XXth century for the scientific study on the living conditions for workers and their families. Finally, we resume some elements useful to study the articulation between the social sciences, the home and the social question.

Keywords : Frédéric Le Play; Social Question; Sociology; Home; Family.
