This book offers an innovative perspective on the ever-widening gap
between the poor and the state in Latin American politics. It
presents a comprehensive analysis of the main social movement that
mobilized the poor and unemployed people of Argentina to end
neoliberalism and to attain incorporation into a more inclusive and
equal society. The piquetero (picketer) movement is the largest
movement of unemployed people in the world. This movement has
transformed Argentine politics to the extent of becoming part of
the governing coalition for more than a decade. Rossi argues that
the movement has been part of a long-term struggle by the poor for
socio-political participation in the polity after having been
excluded by authoritarian regimes and neoliberal reforms. He
conceptualizes this process as a wave of incorporation, exploring
the characteristics of this major redefinition of politics in Latin
America.
