- Note
- "La Esperanza (Jujuy) is a town and municipality in Jujuy Province in Argentina.
It hosts an historical sugar factory, founded by British industrialists Walter (1858-1944) and William Leach (1851-1932). In 1906, German anthropologist Robert Lehmann-Nitsche signed an agreement with the Leach brothers. He had noted that workers there came from several different ethnic groups and used to sing while working. Lehmann-Nitsche recorded their songs in 30 phonograph cylinders that he sent to the Berliner Phonogramm-Archiv.
Lehmann-Nitsche was later criticized for having conducted his research ignoring the exploitation and mistreatment of the native Argentinians who worked in the factory." - (en.wikipedia.org 04.04.2020) - Latitude
