A History of Schooling and Family Life On Southern Argentine Sheep Ranches

University of Minnesota at the School of Social Work

Changing schooling patterns and concurrent changes in residence patterns have altered family life on the isolated sheep ranches of Peninsula Valdes, Argentina, over the last century. Examination of the schooling and familial experiences of individuals belonging to eight cohorts in fifteen families reveals that the lack of nearby educational facilities has played an important part in an exodus from the ranches to town. In three phases, the rich family- oriented life on the ranches has been transferred to town, and family life on the ranches has been impoverished.
