The election of Javier Milei as President of Argentina has been overwhelming (more than eleven points ahead of his rival), but it leaves more unknowns about the immediate future than certainties of a change as radical as feared. The shock of Milei's victory is not a mirage. He will do damage, and a lot, as did Macri (who will play an important role in this new journey) or the renegade Peronist Menem himself , and even the radical De la Rúa . Division of the country Initial radicalism, later moderation Opportunity to reconstruct a degraded Peronism Risk of regional isolation By choosing Milei to blow up the ruin of an institutional building eaten away by the political class (1), Argentina flirts with the abyss.
This is undoubtedly the “vote of rage,” an expression of social fatigue and desperation due to inflation exceeding 140% and the unstoppable advance of poverty (40%). It is a reissue of the “let them all go away” from the beginning Phone Number Database of this century. It is a dangerous bet to entrust the wolf with the care of the lambs. These may be the keys to the new time: Division of the country Milei's electoral victory confirms a map of a divided country, with the most favored areas almost exclusively supporting his candidacy and the rejection, although insufficient, of those that are below the average national income. In the province of Buenos Aires (south and west of the capital), a traditional bastion of the most militant Peronism, Milei has had little success.
On the other hand, it has won in provinces that have almost always been hostile to the national-unionist practices of Peronism in its different versions and mutations. It is undoubtedly the “vote of rage,” an expression of social exhaustion and desperation. Initial radicalism, later moderation It is not clear that Milei can, or even intends, to apply some of the demagogic and lunatic proposals that he has been defending in his meteoric rise to power. In fact, he has retracted, corrected or qualified some of the most scandalous ones, claiming that he was speaking figuratively (such as the sale of organs and others related to individual rights). Despite his speech on victory night confirming that “there will be no gradualism” , he owes his “audacity” in economic policy (forced dollarization, suppression of the Central Bank.
