This article analyzes the Argentinan parliamentary opposition in legal reform debates between 2009 and 2010, that searched to extend rights concerning to communicative and sexual citizenship in that country. From analysis of interventions in the Congress' voting sessions, the paper proposes two categories to describe strategies of displacement of the parliamentary opposition: displacements by procedures flaws and displacements by political feuds. Both categories group discursive operations that question the democratic institutions based on external factors, displace the object of legislative debate and seek the annulment of parliamentary debate.

This paper makes two contributions to the classical thesis in American Political Science on the existence of "two presidents", as applied to the Argentine case. Analyzing rollcall votes for the recent period, we confirm the validity of the thesis in a markedly presidential and multiparty system. Furthermore, comparing international and domestic legislative topics, we analyze which factors affect the legislative support received by the president. Using robust regressions, we find that popular approval is positively associated with the level of support that the president received for domestic but not international initiatives. The use of Necessity and Urgency Decrees, the economy's performance, the ideological polarization between the parties in Congress, and the chamber in which the initiative is submitted are all variables that affect legislative support.

This paper provides an alternative causal mechanism to explain why parties monitor voters. The ability to monitor voters, defined as a clientelistic party's capacity to convince voters that it can identify the candidate(s) for whom they voted, remains a core assumption in the literature. The underlying logic of the argument is that if clientelistic parties cannot monitor voters, they run the risk of voters taking the goods with one hand and voting with the other. Instead of focusing on commitment, I argue that monitoring makes clientelism work by forcing voters to publicly signal their electoral support before getting to the voting booth. Using empirical evidence from Argentina, this article shows how parties mobilize and monitor voters before elections to avoid the costs of verifying their electoral choices on an individual basis.

This paper presents the outputs of a research in which stratification, social classes and social mobility are approached from a perspective that incorporates the perceptions of the subjects regarding to the forms of construction of a symbolic normality about this issues during contemporary Argentina. In the last decade Argentina characterized itself by a model of state intervention that is consolidated in 2007, and establishes a new link between labor and social policies. This new relationship comes into tension with the neoliberal ideology of individualization, typical of the neoliberal decade, the nineties. To do so, it involves two theoretical perspectives, and a strategy that combines quantitative and qualitative techniques. The quantitative approach allowed us to describe trends that characterize social mobility and social stratification processes, which contextualize this article. The qualitative approach allowed us to analyze perceptions of one's position in the social structure (Echeverria Zabalza, 1999). The biographical method was used. Life stories addressed through thematic analysis (and not the story of life as a unit in itself) from a comparative perspective (Bertaux, 1994; 2005). In this line, we reconstructed the perceptions that the subjects that make up different paths class enunciate and construct discursively, as far as mechanisms of state intervention concerned, and particularly the way in which these utterances are related to perceptions about one's place in the social structure and the potential of that space, differentially with others. Our conclusions claim that the break of the neoliberal consensus regarding forms of state intervention was not necessarily hand to hand by a one of values and principles on which the society organized the common Life, and built explanations and justifications about social inequality.

From a constructivist approach, in this paper we analize the emergence of sport as a tool for social and educative inclusion in a social policy program related to education in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, between 2004 and 2011. From the analysis of different sources of information, public presentations and interviews to main public officials of the program Patios Abiertos en las Escuelas, we inquire into the basis that the different actors report and enable the incorporation of sport to achieve the inclusion.

This paper analyses the articles written by Enrique Pichon-Rivière and Ana Pampliega de Quiroga for the magazine Primera Plana, between 1966 and 1967. We have specially focused on the articles that try to situate the subjective effects of socio-economic and cultural modernization of the moment. In this regard, we have been interested in showing that these writings reflect the tension of a time in which the traditional ways of living and thinking coexisted with discourses and practices that questioned them. Furthermore, and considering the political situation of the moment in which these works were published, we went through some articles on this topic. We notice a stand in favour of the validity of the democratic system. This standpoint confronted with the media campaign led by the magazine itself, which sought to create the necessary consensus for the military coup of June 1966. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper intends to problematize and put into perspective the use and abuse in the current political language about the idea of "State policy". Some authors have already made significant contributions, but seem insufficient because the notion increasingly used to further confusion. The idea is search the limits of this notion, inquire about the meaning and scope, analyze the possibility of finding specific attributes, whether there are policies in Argentina that could be classified as State policies and what does its existence in a democracy. Consequently, in this first approach, we will work on the everyday uses of the concept of State policy and to speak of these we will refer , primarily, to documentary sources not academic [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
