Resumen:
This paper analyzes the Argentine experience of the
interactions of macroeconomic regime, labour
performance, income distribution and poverty
during the Convertibility Plan and the new
macroeconomic regime that followed the collapse
of the currency board regime. Differing theoretical
perspectives are discussed, and diverse labour and
social indicators analyzed. The macroeconomic
framework is found to have a bearing on the social
situation. Further, the negative effects of the
macroeconomic configuration on the labour market
and income distribution persist even after the
country has resumed a growth path. The complete
recovery of the standard of living conditions thus
requires additional public policy efforts targeted at
the more vulnerable groups, even under
macroeconomic regimes more favourable to
employment generation.
