Proximidad territorial y desarrollo local - rural: las ferias francas de la Provincia de Misiones - Noreste Argentino

In English The concept of proximity has its origins at the beginning of the years ’90 in France with the studies from the Group of the Dynamics of the Proximity. The importance of the territorial proximity for the development is considered basically through studies centred in the analysis of industrial dynamic and innovative environments. Its relationship with the local development in poor rural areas has been almost not considered. This work attempts to advance in the understanding of the local rural development from a perspective centred in the relationships of proximity focusing in
the process of conformation of first local farmers’ fairs in Misiones, North-eastern Argentina.
