0802733WaterstoneThis doctoral dissertation enhancement project is for John Baldridge, a PhD student at University of Arizona, working under the direction of his advisor, Dr. Marvin Waterstone. His dissertation will examine the aftermath of the Argentine 2001 economic crisis and the neo-liberal policies of the 1990s that resulted in workers recovering bankrupted businesses from their former employees and establishing worker led cooperatives. The research will be conducted in collaboration with the Argentine Ministry of Labor, the National Movement of Recovered Businesses (MNER), and Drs. Federico Schuster, Liliano de Riz, and Hector Palomino from the Faculty of Social Sciences at University of Buenos Aires. The new institutional arrangements that resulted from these recovered businesses will be investigated along with how these cooperative institutions are formed, sustained, perceived, and impact the identity of the workers involved. The project utilizes mixed methodology including archival work, interviews, oral histories, and participant observations. The student has already visited the site, completed preliminary work, and developed strong collaborations with the Argentine institutions to carry out the proposed research.The study aims to develop a new theory of the industrial commons to explain the unique development of these worker owned businesses in Argentina and thereby create a potentially transformative framework that may be applied to other parts of the Americas. The research would have much relevance to the policy and planning communities in the Americas and provide a new perspective on common property regimes as they exist in urban settings. This proposal will support international dissertation research for one graduate student.

这个博士论文增强项目是给亚利桑那大学的博士生约翰·巴尔德里奇的，他在他的导师马文·沃特斯通博士的指导下工作。他的论文将研究2001年阿根廷经济危机的后果，以及20世纪90年代的新自由主义政策，这些政策导致工人从以前的员工手中恢复破产的企业，并建立工人主导的合作社。这项研究将与阿根廷劳工部、全国复苏企业运动(MNer)以及布宜诺斯艾利斯大学社会科学学院的Federico Schuster、Liliano de Riz和Hector Palomino博士合作进行。将调查由这些恢复的企业产生的新的制度安排，以及这些合作机构是如何形成、维持、感知和影响相关工人的身份的。该项目使用了包括档案工作、访谈、口述历史和参与者观察在内的混合方法。这名学生已经参观了现场，完成了前期工作，并与阿根廷机构开展了强有力的合作，以开展拟议的研究。该研究旨在发展一种新的工业公地理论，以解释这些工人拥有的企业在阿根廷的独特发展，从而创建一个可能具有变革性的框架，可以应用于美洲其他地区。这项研究将与美洲的政策和规划社区有很大的相关性，并为共同财产制度提供一个新的视角，因为它们存在于城市环境中。这项建议将支持一名研究生的国际论文研究。
