Abstract: Abstract This chapter evaluates the impact of Argentine exports to the economy between 1875 and 1929 by analyzing several indicators. As well as calculating the extent to which GDP growth was generated by exports, the authors quantify the indirect contribution of the export sector by estimating the return value, the fiscal contribution, the purchasing power of exports, positive externalities, industrial linkages, and the use of modern energies. The new evidence is oriented to discuss some of the notions held by conventional interpretations dealing with the trajectory and performance of the Argentine economy during the first Age of Exports.
