ANZELINI, Luciano. Between discourse and effective action: the contradictions of Macri's defense policy. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.25, pp.68-90. Epub 05-Nov-2019. ISSN 1900-6586. https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.386.
A militarizing discourse of public security has characterized the first halfofMauricio Macri's government (2015-2017). However, the "basic consensus on security and defense" has not been altered substantively. A detailed analysis of specific policies of his administration shows a contradiction between what is posited on the rhetorical level and the concrete measures adopted. After evaluating the correlation between the high-level political discourse and the legislative and executive initiatives to combat "new threats," it was found that the absence of essential measures to merge said discourse with concrete policies has an explanation that is more financial than military-strategic. During the period of study, a relative "demilitarization" was observed in the fight against drug trafficking, a consequence of the fiscal adjustment that guides the economic policy. Likewise, this result exists.
