Political Risk Alert (30 Oct. 2019)
Political Risk Alert (30 Oct. 2019) Argentina: Election outcome means early start on debt challenge Event: Alberto Fernandez achieved a comfortable first-round victory over incumbent President Mauricio Macri on October 27. Significance: Avoiding the need for a second round should help to speed up efforts to tackle the economic crisis and bring forward the start of debt renegotiations with creditors. Fernandez’s economic transition team is closer to him than to his vice-president-elect, former President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner (CFK). However, the extent to which the populist-leaning CFK will dominate the new administration is a major concern for investors, as is the outlook for talks with the IMF. Meanwhile, the political alliance that backed Macri’s pro-business stance looks close to disintegrating. Analysis: Fernandez won a clear margin of 48% to 40%, although this was smaller than suggested by recent polling. However, the fact that Macri improved his performance by some 8 percentage points is due to the votes he won from smaller parties' candidates, increasing polarisation between his allies and those of Fernandez. Generally regarded as far more moderate than CFK, Fernandez will find himself limited in his policy choices by both economic constraints and demands of more radical Kirchnerist groups such as the youth movement La Campora. Given his own lack of an independent support base, those groups will not hesitate to emphasise that his election victory was due to Kirchnerist backing. This shift in post-election emphasis towards CFK has already begun. After first ceding the presidential candidacy and then maintaining a low profile during the campaign in a bid to downplay the controversies that surround her, CFK was very much centre stage on election night, and the Frente de Todos celebrations were dominated by images of CFK and her late husband, former President Nestor Kirchner. -
13 Las Elecciones Subnacionales De 2015 En
Revista Uruguaya de Ciencia Política - Vol. 25 N°1 - ICP - Montevideo 13 LAS ELECCIONES SUBNACIONALES DE 2015 EN ARGENTINA: ESTABILIDAD CON CAMBIO* 2015 Subnational Elections in Argentina: Stability with Change Natalia Del Cogliano** y Carlos Varetto*** Resumen: El presente artículo explora las principales características del extenso año electoral que vivió Ar- gentina a lo largo de 2015 para demostrar que la excepcionalidad del proceso no estuvo tanto en la magnitud del cambio en el orden subnacional, sino en la significancia para la política nacional de unos pocos hechos en ciertas provincias. Se analizan las elecciones de orden subnacional, buscando realizar una lectura dinámica que incorpore el plano de la carrera por la Presidencia de la Nación, sin el cual el análisis electoral subnacio- nal resultaría insuficiente. A tal fin, en primer lugar se presentan las características del complejo federalismo electoral, y la dinámica de desdoblamiento del calendario electoral, los cuales constituyen importantes retos para la coordinación de las élites y del electorado. Seguidamente, se realiza una sintética descripción del desarrollo de los sistemas políticos provinciales argentinos utilizando una serie de indicadores de sistemas de partidos. Finalmente, se hace una lectura del año electoral en su dimensión fundamentalmente subnacional a partir de cuatro hitos centrales, y se concluye subrayando la centralidad en la definición de la política nacio- nal de las provincias que constituyen la zona núcleo de producción agropecuaria del país. Palabras clave: elecciones, Argentina, política subnacional, calendario electoral Abstract: The paper explores the main features of the long electoral year that took place in Argentina during 2015. It aims to demonstrate that the main feature of the electoral process was not so much the magnitude of the political change in the subnational level, but the relevance of the electoral outcomes in a few districts for national politics. -
“Bringing Militancy to Management”: an Approach to the Relationship
“Bringing Militancy to Management”: An Approach to the Relationship between Activism 67 “Bringing Militancy to Management”: An Approach to the Relationship between Activism and Government Employment during the Cristina Fernández de Kirchner Administration in Argentina Melina Vázquez* Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET); Instituto de Investigaciones Gino Germani; Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina Abstract This article explores the relationship between employment in public administration and militant commitment, which is understood as that which the actors themselves define as “militant management.” To this end, an analysis is presented of three groups created within three Argentine ministries that adopted “Kirchnerist” ideology: La graN maKro (The Great Makro), the Juventud de Obras Públicas, and the Corriente de Libertación Nacional. The article explores the conditions of possibility and principal characteristics of this activism as well as the guidelines for admission, continuing membership, and promotion – both within the groups and within government entities – and the way that this type of militancy is articulated with expert, professional and academic capital as well as the capital constituted by the militants themselves. Keywords: Activism, expert knowledge, militant careers, state. * Article received on November 22, 2013; final version approved on March 26, 2014. This article is part of a series of studies that the author is working on as a researcher at CONICET and is part of the project “Activism and the Political Commitment of Youth: A Socio-Historical Study of their Political and Activist Experiences (1969-2011)” sponsored by the National Agency for Scientific and Technological Promotion, Argentine Ministry of Science, Technology and Productive Innovation (2012-2015), of which the author is the director. -

LADB Article Id: 79218 ISSN: 1060-4189 Argentina Devalues Currency; Braces for Opposition Attacks by Andrés Gaudín Category/Department: Argentina Published: 2014-02-14 Following Argentine legislative elections that narrowed the gap between the opposition and the ruling party, power groups and major media have pushed President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (CFK) to devalue the country’s currency. Though opposition parties gained ground, they did not win the election. The government had held that its efforts to maintain monetary stability was a major achievement allowing it to enrich foreign-exchange reserves and develop social policy. However, on Jan. 24, persistent market movement culminated with the end of monetary stability, one of the pillars of the Kirchner administrations that began in 2003 with the late President Néstor Kirchner (2003-2007) and continued under his wife who was elected following his death in 2007. The same day as the devaluation, economist Raúl Dellatorre said, "The government had to face a most difficult economic decision, one it had always rejected because of predictable regressive consequences. -

Through the Looking Glass
Through The Looking Glass The Fernández de Kirchner government’s narco corruption and the diminished rule of law Douglas Farah, Senior Fellow, Financial Investigations and Transparency - International Assesment and Strategy Center (IASC) www.StrategyCenter.net October 2014 ABSTRACT A brief look at the mounting corruption scandals in the government of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and the diminishing rule of law in Argentina. 1 Table of Contents PREFACE INTRODUCTION DRUGS AND OTHER CORRUPTION CASES AT THE TOP THE GROWING FIGHT WITH THE UNITED STATES THE EPHEDRINE TRAIL PASSES CLOSE TO THE PRESIDENT CONCLUSIONS 2 Preface This paper is the fourth in a series of IASC studies and updates on the deteriorating situation in Argentina, part of a broader survey of corruption and transnational organized crime in Latin America. It includes extensive studies on Bolivia, Ecuador and the criminalized nature of the Bolivarian Alliance. The first Argentina study, “Back to the Future: Argentina Unravels,” discussed both the roots and populist ties of the government of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner to Iran and the Bolivarian bloc of nations led by Venezuela. The second, “La Cámpora in Argentina: The Rise of a New Vanguard Generation and the Road to Ruin,” discussed the rise of the Camporista movement within the Fernández de Kirchner government and its vision of remaking Argentina’s society and economy in a populist authoritarian model. The third one, “One Step Forward, Two Steps Back: Argentina Tangos Toward Collapse,” was a companion piece to the first two and provided an update on the headlong rush of the Fernández de Kirchner government toward economic collapse, posing a significant risk to the region and to the strategic interests of the United States. -
