Cable Agencia Télam Asamblea Legislativa (Cartelera CABLE AGENCIA TÉLAM ASAMBLEA LEGISLATIVA (CARTELERA)/ MENEM DEJO INAUGURADO EL PERIODO DE SESIOES ORDINARIAS Buenos Aires, 1 de marzo (Télam).­ El Presidente Carlos Menem dejó hoy inaugurado el centésimo tercer período ordinario de sesiones del Congreso de la Nación, con un mensaje en el que reivindicó el programa económico, condenó en forma enérgica al terrorismo y anunció un plan quinquenal de obras públicas. Por sexta vez consecutiva y última de su actual mandato presidencial, el jefe de Estado habilitó el período de sesiones ordinarias, que, por mandato de la nueva Constitución, se realiza el primero de marzo y no el 1 de mayo, como se efectuaba desde hacía más de cien años. El presidente pronunció un discurso que se extendió durante cuarenta y cinco minutos, ante un recinto en el que el 80 por ciento de las bancas fue ocupada por todos los bloques parlamentarias. Durante su mensaje, Menem reinvidicó el programa económico que abrió las puertas para iniciar una transformación del Estado y permitió terminar, según resaltó, con "aquel país sin esperanza, agotado por la miseria y la irresponsabilidad". El jefe de Estado reinvidicó la consolidación de la democracia alcanzada durante la gestión del radical Raúl Alfonsín, pero destacó que la consolidación económica se logró a través del plan implementado por su gobierno. "Sin pecar de soberbia, pero con legítimo orgullo, digo que así como me tocó recibir un país con las instituciones consolidadas por la gestión de mi antecesor, el doctor Raúl Alfonsín, termino mi mandato con un país en pleno crecimiento social y económico", puntualizó. Uno de los items que provocó satisfacción en los legisladores del oficialismo fue el anuncio de un plan quinquenal de obras públicas, y su comprmiso para que la justicia social sea plena en la Argentina. "Ahora es el tiempo de la justicia social. Yo declaro desde este Honorable Congreso, que el quinquenio 1995­99 debe ser el quinquenio del incremento de la justicia social", destacó el jefe del Estado. Con respecto al +Plan quinquenal de proyectos de Inversión y Desarrollo+, Menem anunció que a la brevedad estará en condiciones de presentar en forma detallada ese programa. "Se trata de una herramienta para todos los argentinos, en un país que puede desarrollar programas estratégicos por encima de las tácticas que cada gobierno pueda implementar", aseguró el jefe de Estado en el discurso sobre el que trabajó el precandidato a intendente porteño Luis Durán. Durante la asamblea, las ausencias más notorias se pudieron observar en la bancada radical, lo que permitió que la mayoría de los senadores justicialistas se ubiquen en el espacio reservado a esa fuerza política opositora. Menem fue ovacionado al comenzar y finalizar su discurso por los legisladores peronistas, en tanto que los diputados opositores se dividieron entre los que permanecieron en silencio y los que largaron algunos aplausos. La UCR dedicó sólo tibios aplausos al mandatario, a diferencia de lo ocurrido en 1994, cuando los radicales agradecieron a Menem su mención al Pacto de Olivos, que abrió las puertas a la reforma constitucional. El jefe de Estado llegó veinte minutos antes de lo previsto, por lo que debió aguardar que se constituya la Asamblea Legislativa, que fue declarada abierta a las 10.30 por el titular del Senado, Eduardo Menem. Apenas traspasada la explanada, Menem fue recibido por una Comisión Exterior que integraron los justicialistas Julio San Millán, Ana Peña de López, Carlos Abihaggle y Rita Drisaldi, el radical José Genoud, el liberal Juan Aguirre Lanari y el demoprogresista Alberto Natale. Al llegar al Salón Azul fue recibido por una Comisión Interior conformada por los los senadores Antonio Cafiero, Ricardo Branda (PJ), Felipe Sapag (MPN), Faustino Mazzuco (UCR), y los diputados Horacio Pernassetti (UCR), Carlos Balter (democráta de Mendoza) y Carlos Manfredotti (PJ). Al atravesar el +Salón de los Pasos Perdidos+, una delegación de cadetes de la Policía Federal rindió al mandatario los honores correspondientes, tras lo cual fue acompañado hasta el recinto de sesiones, por los presidentes de ambas cámaras, Eduardo Menem y Alberto Pierri. Menem, vestido de traje azul, camisa clara y corbata azul y amarilla, leyó el mensaje ante la Asamblea Legislativa sin realizar casi ninguna modificación al texto original, y fue seguido atentamente por los legisladores, y los invitados que ocupaban los palcos de todo el recinto de la Cámara de Diputados. Sólo algunos legisladores, como el jefe de la bancada radical, Raúl Galván, y el flamante candidato a presidente por el +Frente del País Solidario+ (Frepaso), José Bordón, se dedicaron a efectuar anotaciones mientras el presidente leía su discurso. Estuvieron presentes en la apertura de las sesiones ordinarias, los ministros del Interior, Carlos Corach; de Relaciones Exteriores, Guido Di Tella; de Economía, Domingo Cavallo; de Trabajo, Armando Caro Figueroa; de Justicia, Rodolfo Barra, y de Salud, Alberto Mazza. También concurrieron los secretarios general de la Presidencia, Eduardo Bauzá; de Programación Contra la Drogadicción y Lucha Contra el Narcotráfico, Eugenio Lestelle; de Desarrollo Social, Eduardo Amadeo; y de Medio Ambiente, María Julia Alsogaray. Concurrieron además el jefe del Estado Mayor Conjunto, Mario Cándido Díaz; y los titulares del Ejército, Martín Balza; de la Armada, Enrique Molina Pico; y de la Fuerza Aérea, Juan Paulik. Luego del discurso del Presidente, que se retiró ovacionado por los diputados y senadores del oficialismo, el titular de la Asamblea Legislativa, Eduardo Menem, dio por concluida la sesión de inauguración del período ordinario.

  • The Argentine Financial Crisis: a Chronology of Events
    Order Code RS21130 January 31, 2002 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web The Argentine Financial Crisis: A Chronology of Events J. F. Hornbeck Specialist in International Trade and Finance Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Summary Argentina’s current crisis resulted from a confluence of events, some external to Argentina’s policy process, others directly related to its political and economic choices. Although it is not easy to discern at what specific point in time Argentina’s economic situation turned into a crisis, it is clear that by early 2001, political, economic and social events had taken a significant turn for the worse. The following is a summary of these events from before Argentina’s adoption of the currency board in 1991 to developments in early 2002. This report will be updated periodically. Chronology of Events1 1980s Argentina suffers through an extended period of economic instability including the Latin American debt crisis and hyperinflation. 1989 Peronist candidate Carlos Menem is elected President of Argentina and appoints Domingo Cavallo as Minister of Economy. Together they enact a major structural adjustment program including tax reform, privatization, trade liberalization, deregulation, and adoption of a currency board. April 1, 1991 Argentina’s Congress enacts the Convertibility Law, which legally adopts the currency board guaranteeing the convertibility of peso currency to dollars at a one-to-one fixed rate and limiting the printing of pesos only to an amount necessary to purchase dollars in the foreign exchange market. Effectively, each peso in circulation is backed by a U.S. dollar and monetary policy is forcibly constrained to uphold that promise.

If one only looked at some official statistics on economic growth and investment, one might conclude that economically Argentina is doing wonderfully. Budget deficits have been significantly reduced.2 Since April 1991, after the Convertibility Plan, inflation has been kept at low levels. For the period 1990 to 1995, the annual average rate of GDP growth was 5 percent.3 Gross domestic investment grew at an average annual rate of 12 percent between 1990 and 1995.4 Yet a sober look at the data on the economic situation in Argentina raises serious doubts as to whether a solid foundation is being build in the country for sustainable economic growth. The economic growth since 1991 is to a large extent due to the influx of dollars from abroad and to the utilization of idle productive capacity that firms had.5 Unemployment and 1 Clarín, Edición Internacional, February 27 to March 14, 1996, p.

The nature of the new ministry, and the timing of the announcement, however, led to charges that the move was essentially a maneuver executed by Menem's powerful Economy Minister, Domingo Cavallo. Critics assailed the proposal, suggesting that creation of the new ministry was actually aimed at controlling social unrest leading up to the 1995 presidential elections. The ensuing cabinet crisis was the worst Menem has faced in the last three years. The crisis unfolded in the days just prior to inauguration of a new Constituent Assembly, which will consider, among other things, a change in the Constitution to allow Menem to run for reelection in 1995.

  • Argentina's Quarter Century Experiment with Neoliberalism
    P. Cooney – Argentina‘s Quarter Century Experiment with Neoliberalism... 7 ARGENTINA’s QuARTER CENTURY EXPERIMENT WITH NEOLIBERALISM: FROM DICTATORSHIP TO DEPRESSION* Paul Cooney** ABSTRACT Argentina set a new historical mark in 2002, having experienced the largest debt default by any country ever. In order to understand how Argentina could go from one of the most developed countries of the Third World, to experi- encing the crisis of 2001 and then enter a depression in 2002 with over half the population living in poverty, requires an evaluation of the last quarter century of economic policies in Argentina. The shift toward neoliberalism began during the dictatorship of 1976, deepened during the Menem administration, and was sup- ported throughout by the IMF. This paper aims to identify why the crisis occurred when it did, but also to understand how the underlying shifts in the political econ- omy of Argentina over more than two decades led to two waves of deindustrializa- tion, an explosion of foreign debt and such a marked decline in the standard of living for the majority of Argentinians.

Analysisof the way in which these policiesthen affect pricesat the sectorallevel is complicatedby the heterogeneityof sectoralproduction: even the pricesof singleproducts usually are determinedby both domesticand tradedcomponents. We present a frameworkwhich first tracesthe influenceof macropolicyon the relativeprices of exports,imports, and homegoods. It then accountsfor eachsector's degree of "tradability,"which is based on the importanceof tradein sectoralincome, and the influenceof macroeconomic policy on sectoralprices. To illustratethe use of this approach,it is applied to a simulationof tradeliberalization in Argentina.Our resultssuggest that economywide policieshad substantial negativeeffects on both the real exchangerate and the Public Disclosure Authorized incentivesto agriculturalexports. In an open economy, the prices of tradable products are determined by world prices, nominal exchange rates, and taxes. The prices of products which are not tradable are determined by domestic supply and demand, which are them- selves influenced by the actions and policies of the government. Some very important economic decisions depend on the price of tradables relative to that of nontradables-the real exchange rate. We examine here the way in which broader government policies affect the real exchange rate, and through it, prices at the sectoral level. Analyses of the real exchange rate generally aggregate all production into Public Disclosure Authorized two sectors, tradables and nontradables. This aggregation simplifies the discus- sion and helps illuminate some important issues, but it has limited empirical relevance: there are no products which can be classified as purely tradables or nontradables.

At the time of the shipments, Croatia was under an international arms embargo and Argentina was banned from sending weapons to Ecuador during its border war with Peru. Argentina was one of the guarantors of a peace treaty between the two nations. Prosecutor cites "ample evidence" implicating Menem Argentine state prosecutor Carlos Stornelli on April 24 asked federal Judge Jorge Urso, who is in charge of the case, to require Menem to testify in the arms-sales scandal. The petition could lead to Menem's first appearance in court in the case (see NotiSur, 1998-11-06). Stornelli's request said ample evidence suggests that Menem, who has denied any involvement, was the "head of the illegal association" that sold arms to Ecuador and Croatia during his presidency.

THE “NORMALIZATION” OF ARGENTINE POLITICS Steven Levitsky Steven Levitsky, assistant professor of government at Harvard University, is the author (with David Collier) of “Democracy with Adjectives: Conceptual Innovation in Comparative Research,” published in April 1997 in World Politics. His essay “Fujimori and Post-Party Politics in Peru” appeared in the July 1999 issue of the Journal of Democracy. On 24 October 1999, Fernando de la Rua of the opposition Alliance for Jobs, Justice, and Education was elected president of Argentina, defeating Eduardo Duhalde of the incumbent Justicialista (or Peronist) Party (PJ) by a margin of 49 percent to 38 percent. Former economics minister Domingo Cavallo, running on the center-right Action for the Republic party ticket, finished third with 10 percent. The election was unprecedented in several respects. De la Rua’s assumption of the presidency marked the first time that Argentine democracy had survived two consecutive transfers of power from one party to another, as well as the first time that a Peronist had been removed from national office by democratic means.

  • Domingo Cavallo 1
    Domingo Cavallo 1 As economy minister in the early 1990s, Cavallo guided Argentina's economic policy of deregulation and privatization and designed the Convertibility Plan. He returned as economy minister in 2000. Cavallo discusses Argentina's structural reform of the 1990s, the internal and external shocks and influences on Argentina's economy, and the country's current financial crisis. Learning from the Past: Dependencia, Chilean Reform, and Bolivian Hyperinflation INTERVIEWER: [The first Commanding Heights episode] is about the battle of ideas. Can you tell me the evolution in your own thinking? I know when you started out as a young economist that dependencia was the dominant thinking in Latin America. Can you talk to us about dependencia? DOMINGO CAVALLO: Yes. In the University of Córdoba where I studied, several professors explained this theory, dependencia, and particularly the theories that came from CEPAL or ECLA from the United Nations, Dr. [Raul] Prebisch's idea on the deterioration of terms of trade for underdeveloped economies. And the theory was that somehow the central economies manage to force permanent reductions in their prices of raw materials that were produced in the developing world. And as a consequence of that, it was convenient for nations, like Argentina and other Latin American economies, to become more closed and to produce mainly for the domestic market—that we introduce import substitution and all that. Those were the prevalent views. But before coming to the university, I had already started to read on economics. And I read the liberal ideas, economic liberal ideas of the 19th century [when Argentina was founded].
