List Of Current Argentine Deputies
A list is a set of discrete items of information collected and set forth in some format for utility, entertainment, or other purposes. A list may be memorialized in any number of ways, including existing only in the mind of the list-maker, but lists are frequently written down on paper, or maintained electronically. Lists are "most frequently a tool", and "one does not ''read'' but only ''uses'' a list: one looks up the relevant information in it, but usually does not need to deal with it as a whole".Lucie Doležalová,The Potential and Limitations of Studying Lists, in Lucie Doležalová, ed., ''The Charm of a List: From the Sumerians to Computerised Data Processing'' (2009).

Federalization Of Buenos Aires
The federalization of Buenos Aires was the process by which the city of Buenos Aires, until then capital of the province of Buenos Aires, was politically separated from the latter to put it under direct control of the national government as a federal territory. That had been a constant aspiration of the other provinces of Argentina since the formation of the federation. However, harsh political debates around the issue prevented the federalization until 1880, more than sixty years and a long civil war later. Argentine Constitution The first successful Constitutional Convention, which took place in 1853, defined in Article 3 the status of Buenos Aires: ''The Authorities that exercise the Federal Government reside in the City of Buenos Aires, which is declared capital of the Confederacy by a special law.'' The terms ''Argentine Confederacy'' were used in those days to designate Argentina (the usage would evolve, and the term ''Argentine Republic'' is now used instead). The a ...

Time In Argentina
Argentina is located at a longitude that would naturally put it in the UTC−04:00 or UTC−05:00 time zone; however, it actually uses the UTC−03:00 time zone. Argentina determines whether to change clocks in observation of daylight saving time on a year-by-year basis, and individual provinces may opt out of the federal decision. At present, Argentina does not change clocks. The Argentine Hydrographic Service maintains the official national time. History The first official standardization of time in Argentina took place on 31 October 1894, with establishment of UTC−04:00 as the nation's standard time Standard time is the synchronization of clocks within a geographical region to a single time standard, rather than a local mean time standard. Generally, standard time agrees with the local mean time at some meridian that passes through the r .... From 1920 to 1969, the official time switched biannually between UTC−04:00 as standard time in winter and UTC−03:0 ...
