“Políticas sociales en la Argentina de Milei: de la participación a la individualización”.
Discussant: Òscar Rebollo (UAB)
Abstract: Within the framework of a radical reduction in the role of the State, the current Argentine government has undertaken a neoliberal reformulation of social policies to address social vulnerability. This reform consists of limiting the participatory management programs constructed throughout this century, in order to strengthen the policy of individual monetary allocations. The budgetary, programmatic, and regulatory reconfiguration is accompanied by a narrative campaign to delegitimize territorial community organization, in a combination that dismantles a tradition of public-social actions aimed at social integration in vulnerable territories. Based on a detailed analysis of these changes, we question their possible effects on social cohesion and on society’s relationship with public-state institutions.
