More about Argentina
Education
Argentina has a well-developed education system, but there is a clear urban-rural divide. Attending school at state educational institutions (from kindergarten to university) is free. The educational institutions are funded by the federal government and the provincial governments. There are also numerous, partly state-supported, fee-based private schools that are attended by around 25% of all students. – Since 2007 there has been compulsory schooling for 12 years. The pre-school (compulsory from the age of 5) is followed by the elementary school, which – depending on the province – lasts 6 or 7 years. This is followed by the secondary level, which is divided into a three-year basic cycle and a two- to three-year specialization phase (for example in the field of economics or technology) and leads to a general higher education qualification (bachillerato). There are numerous state universities and a growing number of private universities in the tertiary sector. The largest university in the country is the Universidad de Buenos Aires, founded in 1821. There are also non-university universities, mainly for teacher training and higher technical training.
Media
There is extensive freedom of the press in Argentina. The concentration in the media area is high.
Press: Eight national and over 60 regional newspapers and around 80 magazines appear. The most important daily newspapers appearing in Buenos Aires are »Clarín« (founded 1945), »La Nación« (founded 1870), the tabloids »Crónica« (founded 1963) and »Diario Popular« (founded 1974) as well as »Página / 12« (founded 1987) and »La Prensa« (founded 1869). The regional newspaper with the highest circulation is »La Voz del Interior« (founded in 1904) from Córdoba. The »Buenos Aires Herald« (founded in 1876) appears in English, and the »Argentinische Tageblatt« (founded in 1889) is the only German-language newspaper.
News agencies: “Télam” (state), “Noticias Argentinas” (NA) and “Agencia Diarios y Noticias” (DYN, both privately run).
Broadcasting: Deregulation and privatization in the 1990s led to strong economic concentration. The largest media group in the country is the Clarín Group. However, she had to give up broadcasting licenses due to the Media Act of 2009, which strengthens state influence. There are around 120 radio and more than 40 television channels in Argentina, the vast majority of which are private channels. “Radio Nacional” and “TV Pública Canal 7” (TVP) are state owned. The largest private TV stations are “Telefé”, “Canal 13”, “Canal 9” and “América TV / 2”.
Law
The judicial system is characterized by the coexistence of federal and provincial jurisdiction. There are lower federal courts and appeal courts in all parts of the country; At the head of the national judiciary is the Buenos Aires Supreme Court. The federal courts are primarily responsible for the application of constitutional law, international law and the law of the sea. The provinces also have their own courts with appeal and review bodies. These include responsible for the application of the federally regulated civil, commercial, labor and criminal law. The civil code, which came into force in 1871, shows numerous continental European and Brazilian influences. The Criminal Code, which has a strong Italian influence, has been in force since 1922; in the course of the changeable political events it was often the subject of reforms.
Military
The total strength of the volunteer army is 73,100 men. The army (38,500 soldiers) is divided into three army corps, including with infantry, tank reconnaissance and mountain brigades. The air force has 14,600 and the navy 20,000 men. The paramilitary forces include 18,000 gendarmerie and 13,000 coast guards.
