The recognition of the extent and complexity of immigration, institutionalization and integration of Jews into Argentina made this historical experience the most studied case in the growing field of Latin American Jewish studies. Although the interest of researchers and foreign research centers continued and increased over the time, several researchers and affiliated researchers from different universities and research agencies in Argentina were laying the foundations of a local tradition. In this way, and as it is proposed to show the present article, the Jewish studies produced from Argentina have reached a legitimacy in the local and international academic field as a result of a sustained production over time that demonstrates the potential of a field of research that Inquiring from various disciplines about a particular actor, the Jews, recomposes a series of perspectives on the local, the national and the transnational. This paper aims to outline what were the horizons of inquiry and the ways in which these developments have enabled the visibility and local recognition of Jewish studies.
