Summary
There are a number of general works on the political process in Argentina between 1870 and 1914: Academia Nacional de la Historia, Historia argentina contemporánea 1862–1930, vols. 1 and 2 (Buenos Aires, 1964, 1966); Ricardo Levillier (ed.), Historia argentina, vol. 4 (Buenos Aires, 1968); E. Gallo and R. Cortés Conde, La república conservadora (Buenos Aires, 1972); N. Botana, El orden conservador: La política argentina entre 1880 y 1916 (Buenos Aires, 1977); G. Ferrari and E. Gallo (eds.), La Argentina del ochenta al centenario (Buenos Aires, 1980); and David Rock, Argentina 1516–1987: From Spanish Colonization to the Falklands War (Berkeley, 1988). Still useful are the classic studies by L. H. Sommariva, Historia de las intervenciones federales en las provincias, 2 vols. (Buenos Aires, 1929), José N. Matienzo, El gobierno representativo federal en la República Argentina (Madrid, 1917), and Rodolfo Rivarola, Del régimen federativo al unitario (Buenos Aires, 1908). Also worth consulting is the documentary compilation by Isidoro Ruiz Moreno (ed.), La federalización de Buenos Aires (Buenos Aires, 1980).
Some biographies contain useful information on the period. See, for example, two studies by Agustín Rivero Astengo, Juárez Celman: Estudio histórico y documental de una época argentina (Buenos Aires, 1940), and Pellegrini, 1846–1906, 2 vols. (Buenos Aires, 1941); R. Sáenz Hayes, Miguel Cané y su tiempo, 1851–1905 (Buenos Aires, 1955); and José Arce, Roca 1843–1914: Su vida y su obra (Buenos Aires, 1960); F. Luna, Soy Roca (Buenos Aires, 1989); A. W. Bunkley, The Life of Sarmiento (Princeton, N.J., 1952); J. Campobassi, Mitre y su época (Buenos Aires, 1980); and D. F. Weinstein, Juan B. Justo y su época (Buenos Aires, 1978).
