CERBINO SANZ, Gonzalo  e  GRIMALDI, Nicolás Esteban. The social bases of macrism: actions and claims of the Argentine bourgeoisie, 2009-2015. E&c [online]. 2020, vol.1, n.10, pp.73-93. ISSN 2477-9245.  https://doi.org/10.37228/estado_comunes.v1.n10.2020.150.

We intend to analyze the claims and actions of the agricultural and industrial fractions of the Argentine ruling class between 2008 and 2015, seeking to reconstruct the process of genesis of the alliance that drove the political change implemented in 2015. We will analyze the actions of the interest groups of agriculture, the industry and the fronts common to both, articulating a qualitative methodology (to analyze positions and alliances) with a quantitative one (to analyze the protests). We will reconstruct diverse moments of conflict, in which different fractions of the ruling class were breaking with the government headed by Fernandez de Kirchner and went on to form the opposition alliance: the agrarian conflict of 2008, the agrarian protests from 2009 to 2015, the formation of an industrial opposition and the confluence of both factions in the Forum of Business Convergence from 2014. This reconstruction will allow us to affirm, in contrast to the dominant interpretations, that the main component of the alliance opposing the government is not the agricultural bourgeoisie, whose weakness was evident in its inability to set itself up as a political alternative after 2008, but the big industrial bourgeoisie, whose move to the opposition in 2013 allowed tipping the scales in favor of political change.
