Objective:
Identify the population-growth effects, dynamics, structure and spatial distribution of the economic model during (1970-2010) in the Buenos Aires middle class .

Specific objectives:

Analyze the levels and trends of economic participation (composition by industry, category and occupational group), the supply of labor force, in terms of demographic factors (fertility, migration and mortality).

Analyze changes in age composition, sex and place of birth, family organization and reproductive behavior. Describe levels of morbidity and mortality, and specific migration patterns of the middle class.

Systematize and evaluate the outcome within the more general study of the correlation between demographic, political, economic and social processes.

Integrate data across a diachronic and comparative analysis with the aim of showing the relationships between social structure changes shown by the middle class, population trends and economic policy.
