Argentina is an interesting case for analyzing productionstyles and circulation. In recent years, there has been ahefty increase in public funding, the consolidation of various PhD programs, and a visibly ?nationalist? emphasis in Argentina?s fellowship schemes and research appointments. The number of full-time researchers has tripled in the past decade, rising from 3,694 in 2003 to 9,236 in 2015. During this period, however, the gap between Argentinian scientists versed in the dominant productionstyles of the world academic system and those with a moreendogenous agenda has widened.
