In exchange with [email protected] [email protected] of page / 12, Martin Granovsky He badyzed the campaign for the STEP: what are the stakes in Argentina and what are the two main opponents: Macri-Pichetto, the formula of the ruling party, and Fernandez-Fernandez, the main formula of opposition?

Some featured pbadages

– "This campaign, not like the others, Real and exacerbated fear is an important factor. "

– "The 2015 elections had a characteristic, sociologists have defined the vote in Macri as a vote by aspiration, that is to say one that shows what I want to be or what I think I can be if Macri wins. This was present in both the middle clbad and popular, vulnerable or vulnerable sectors. It was a very strong vote because no one wins more than 50% just with the Recoleta ".

– "This scenario does not exist today. In any case, what is the fear of a return to the past?, to a supposed past, as if one could never return to the past, It's absolutely impossible in the story.

– "The official and official approach is the exacerbation of fear, so that what in 2015 was ambitious now becomes a hope and this is once again a hope against fear. The fear of getting the last thing I have. "

– "The government does not focus on promises. It has some axes, such as "our facts are palpable" and then Macri leans and touches the asphalt, but according to statistics published in the newspaper, the number of kilometers of roads actually made is 700 ".

– "History has remained synonymous with invention, but the story is the narrative of what existed. This is what the government wants to impose because what it can not do is give figures. "

– "Zero poverty has emerged as one of Macri's main goals, alongside national unity and the success of the fight against drug trafficking. There are also no numbers to display, that's why What appears is a story of evangelism: there is no future, in any case, you have to make the sacrifice here on earth to win heaven and paradise would be, since there is no more discussion than the second semester, the next government. Then the sacrifice on earth would be in the first four years and heaven in the next four years. "

– "Fear operates in terms of opposition to cartoons. If I invent a cartoon, it is easier to argue against this drawing because it is not the reality and, besides, I invented it and if I invented it, I invented sides that I can easily fight ".

– "The instability of one country causes the instability of others. There is no distance for that. Then, stereotype Venezuela, stereotype of hyperinflation, as if 58% per year did not. When you want to be afraid, you have to do several things at the same time, You must be afraid to invent stereotypes and hide your own weaknesses, which is done by increasing stereotypes., the growing fear of the return of an alleged totalitarianism ".

– "It seems to me that the ambitious scenario, among those who want or have already decided to vote for Macri and are not their hard core, is" since I made the sacrifice, I give him one more chance "and I notice that it is part of the government's campaign speech: I do not want to make the sacrifice to the devil, I'm sacrificing myself a little bit more, because the paradise will come good, we guess that in the end there will be a reward and then the fantasy of the reward would be there, starting with a new Macri government. "

– "The aspiration to these elections it's not the certainty of the social climb that some bands of the electorate had in 2015, but hope not to fall any more"

– "Why does not this happen?" This is not a rarity, in general, economic depression leads to exclusion, economic destruction leads to political depression and sometimes leads to individual situations of distress and depression. "

– "Marco Aurelio García, former international adviser of Lula, said in 2016 that it was necessary to pay attention to only describe the governments emerging in Latin America as neoliberals, because we will not see another new social phenomenon: Ultra-conservative neoliberal governments are ready to last because they know that they have to finish a cycle because if they do not finish it, the possibility of reversibility, even partial, is high in America. Latin. Sustainability is a condition for deepening and intensifying these ultranoliberal and ultraconservative models. "

– "For which Macri, Pichetto and Vidal use the totalitarian word? Because when the totalitarian word is used, not only the specter of the fear of losing individual freedom is excited, but also the ghost of fear of loss of property and this fear is one that historically leads to more reactionary and conservative positions, and then causes fascism. "

– "Alberto Fernández is committed to a very specific campaign axis that began with an announcement, a concrete measure, according to which it was free medicines for pensioners. This is feasible because PAMI is the buyer of 40% of the drugs on the Argentine market. Firepower and regulation are therefore very high. "

– "Other proposals of the Front of all as rethinking the issue of royalties or that of speculation in relation to production and work they are entering into a land power conflict and, therefore, one might think that the campaign will intensify and, as I have already said, macroism longs for a long cycle and anti-racism or the popular sectors also aspire to take over the government to be able to start another type of long cycle"

– "What Fernández – Fernández faces is a power that is not only focused, but extremely articulate who have big media, they have international alliances, such as the United States and the ultraconservative government of Brazil, but it seems to me that it's not possible to think of a transparent shield. From the point of view of the will, it is doomed to failure and, from the point of view of the badysis, it seems insufficient. but one would have to think that societies would be governed only by the capacity for manipulation and that the concrete experiences that each one would live each day would have no effect. It seems to me that at least there is a combination of these two things. "
