The aim of this work is to analyze the characteristics of the evolution of mortality in the last 20 years in Argentina, based on the study of the process of compression of mortality, according to sex and geographic region. Compression of mortality was analyzed, according to the methodology proposed by Kannisto (2000) through the analysis of survival curves and deaths from life tables. Life tables were constructed for the last three census periods available. To soften them, they were based on the average of three-year deaths: 1990-1992, 2000-2002, 2009-2011. The results indicate that, in men and women in the various regions of Argentina, there is a trend to convergence in compression of mortality, although it is still late in the Northeast region. These data would indicate that there is a tendency towards convergence in the process of compression of mortality inside the country, although differences persist in some regions.
