GARCIA, Ariel. TO GOVERN, (IS) TO CAPTURE AND COLONIZE: THIRD CYCLE OF NEOLIBERALIZATION IN THE ARGENTINIAN AGRARIAN POLICY. Semest. Econ. [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.52, pp.75-95. ISSN 0120-6346.  https://doi.org/10.22395/seec.v22n52a4.

This article considers that the cycles of neoliberalization must be framed in the study of the dynamic and multifaceted articulation between economic agents and estate dispositifs. The goal is to analyze the characteristics of the third cycle of neoliberalization (2015-2019) in the Argentinian agrarian policies concerning its exclusive de-structuring and restructuring. Parting from a methodological triangulation approach the dynamics of the agrarian policy is presented from two governing entities: the Ministry of Agroindustry (degraded to Secretariat in 2018) and the National Institute for Agricultural Technology (INTA in Spanish). Specifically, the processes of capture and colonizing in the directing of both entities by interested organizations that respond to economic elites from the agricultural sector.
