Resumen
VELAZQUEZ, Guillermo Ángel y CELEMIN, Juan Pablo. Quality of life by department and region in Argentina at the end of the 19th century. Travesía (San Miguel de Tucumán) [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.1, pp.135-165. ISSN 2314-2707.
This paper discusses the quality of life in the Second National Population Census of Argentina (1895). An index of quality of life was established from variables related to education, health and housing conditions. The main objective is to propose an index of quality of life that also allows to use the sources of the period and to enable future diachronic comparisons while using the Geographic Information Systems for their cartographic representation. The results show that the quality of life index has a high degree of territorial heterogeneity, although the traditional urban centers show the highest values, while the north and west of the country contain the lowest values.
