Elementary schools of the Nation in provinces before the Lainez Law: the case of the National Colonies at the end of the 19th century

This work describes schools located in National Colonies administered by organizations dependent on the Nation and located within provinces at the end of the 19th century. They were establishments in C & oacute;rdoba, Entre Rios and Santa Fe. The article will shed light on a vacant edge of historiography, delving into the links developed between the Nation and provinces, as well as referring to features of material culture and identity. To carry out this work, the documentation studied comes from files preserved in the intermediate archive of the General Archive of the Nation and from articles in El Monitor de la Educaci & oacute;n Com & uacute;n.
