The city developed as a commercial and administrative centre during the Spanish colonial period and became the national capital of independent Argentina in 1880. Between 1870 and 1910 the city was transformed by major building and modernisation works, and by mass immigration from Europe. In 1994 constitutional reforms gave autonomy to the Federal Capital of Buenos Aires, and today, forty per cent of Argentines live in the metropolitan area. This sophisticated city dominates the nation both politically and economically, as well as culturally. This is the first bibliography in English on the vast literature on Buenos Aires.
