| Summary: | Studies on the transmission of heritage have a relative development in Argentine historiography, especially, since 1990. These are focused on the region of La Pampa in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth. In accordance with them, we share the idea that the practices of transmission of heritage in the agriculture of La Pampa prove the coexistence of multiple mechanisms, both egalitarian as exclusionary. In this way, those approaches that analyze family logics in the transmission of heritage and the methods of reproduction are very significant. We attempt to reflect on the transmission mechanisms of the heritage in a family of farmers in the South of the national territory of La Pampa -the Russo family- and draw parallels with two other cases in the area. We are also interested to observe the inheritance of women in these family networks and consider their role in livestock enterprises. We try to problematize gender relations existing within families (as in this case) assessing the experiences of three families, in a region poorly studied by the local historiography |
