La electrificación en países de industrialización tardía: Argentina y España, 1890-1950

Aimed at contributing to study of the electrification of peripheral host economies, this article examines the evolution and characteristics of electricity systems in Spain and Argentina from the early 19th century until the second postwar period. The global management and financing of electric utili...
