Abstract

 The aim of this article is to analyze the role of the leader of the “Corriente Campesina Nacional” (COCAN) as a mediator between state agents and the “criollo” population in the “Impenetrable” (a region located in Chaco, north east of Argentina) during the period 2012-2015. A qualitative methodology is applied, using participant observation and in-depth interviews. The article concludes that the COCAN uses diverse organizational practices to solve rural community problems: implementation and management of state projects, negotiations with political authorities and promotion of cultural and productive activities.
