Popis: The globalization and economic opening have generated an increase of the volumes of the international trade for sea route, re-meaning the role and functioning of the ports that had restructure and to adapt to the new demands. From the process of opening and reform of the State in Argentina during the nineties, there arise new forms of administration and management of the port infrastructure across models of organization of the type landlord, where the public sector preserves the property of the port and invests in basic infrastructure but does not exploit, in general, any of the services that lend to the ship or to the charges. In order to contribute to the analysis of the processes of modernization and privatization of the infrastructure and management of the cereals ports in the country, the present work has for objective analize the organization, efficiency and interport competition of the port Quequen, after its privatization in 1994. From the analysis it is clear that the development of the port Quequen is determined by the characteristics of the hinterland, the productive specialization in commodities undifferentiated and the deterioration of the infrastructure and ferreous routes that connect the port with the zones of production and the decisions of transnational companies that from a global logic favour the investments in different ports of the country. Though the port reforms have generated major efficiency in the operative one, inside organization of the port Quequen, resultant unefficiencies of the differences still persist between the different groups of interest that is translated in the loss of relative importance opposite to other port organizations of the region, and to the scanty transparency of the regulative in force frame.
