Abstract

CARBALLO, Oscar; FILI, Juan Pablo  and  ENGELMAN, Anabella Ayelén. Geographies of work in the new viticulture. The case of Valle de Uco, Mendoza. Estudios Socioterritoriales [online]. 2020, vol.28, pp.68-68. ISSN 1853-4392.  http://dx.doi.org/10.37838/unicen/est.28-068.

The emergence of the new viticulture for export in the Uco Valley at the beginning of the present century led to the appearance of a number of studies that problematized the production of space from the landscape category. However, it is essential to integrate into this analysis the back room of the work that makes such landscapes possible, and the impact on the daily life and perceptions of the workers. For this, we appeal to an approach from the geography of work, the sociology of work and rural sociology. From a qualitative approach, we inquire into the tensions between capital and labor underlying the landscape production process. As a result, we highlight the material and spatial transformations in the forms of work organization that the new viticulture has brought about and its impact on the daily life of the workers who support it.

Keywords : Geography of work; Landscape; Uco Valley; Viticulture.
