At the turn of the millennium, Argentina was hit by an unparalleled
crisis. Institutional instability, economic decline, unemployment,
and social mobilization unsettled one of the neo-liberal showcases
of the 1990s. The country seemed on the verge of an abyss. Yet,
total collapse and disintegration of the economic and political
system was avoided. The country's economy began to recuperate and
presidential elections were held in April 2003, showing the
impressive resilience of the nation's democratic system. Although
these developments are noteworthy, the crisis and its effects have
not yet been overcome. On the contrary, they have left deep wounds
and transformed Argentina for years to come. By melding traditional
and new research approaches, The Argentine Crisis at the Turn of
the Millennium: Causes, Consequences and Explanations attempts to
provide an overall picture of a crisis whose comprehension will be
crucial for students of contemporary Argentina. The chapters
included in this book - authored by scholars living in Europe and
the Americas - deal with some of the most important issues
connected with the crisis. They cover history, the economy,
politics and society, national as well as international aspects,
the view from above, and the view from below. The contributors
include Javier Auyero, Flavia Fiorucci, Laura Gomez Mera, Marcus
Klein, Lucas Llach, Mariana Llanos, Luis Alberto Romero, and
Sebastian M. Saiegh.
