Abstract
In the past decades, new sources of knowledge from the interior of the country have emerged in the Argentine historiography, seeking to articulate alternatives to the academic production generated in Buenos Aires. The purpose of this article is to assess the strengths and weaknesses of these investigations, by analyzing how they construct their spatial scales of research. This paper provides some preliminary answers to this question, examining the recent production in the field of social history dedicated to social policies. The main assumption of this article is that these kinds of studies usually do not pay the due attention to the methodological reflection about their spatial scales of research. In that way, they reduce their explanatory scope and the possibilities of rethinking the previous historiographical knowledge.
