soc.culture.argentina
All about life in Argentina.
Tango lyrics, Boca–River rivalry, mate etiquette, and — always — economics. soc.culture.argentina tracked hyperinflation, convertibility and the 2001 collapse through the eyes of Argentines at home and abroad, in Spanish and English.
Its film and literature threads (Borges, Cortázar, Piglia) were strong enough that academics lurked and occasionally de-lurked to settle citations.
