Abstract

[This chapter concentrates on the history of Argentina’s political economy from the 1970s up until the crisis of 2001, thus titled: Argentina—from Dictatorship to Depression. Here the major impacts and shifts that began with the military government’s implementation of neoliberal policies starting in 1976 with the Economics Minister Martinez de Hoz are examined, leading to the first wave of deindustrialization. This is followed by an analysis of the 1980s and the Alfonsín years in the transition to democracy, and the crisis of hyperinflation. The last part examines the intensification of neoliberal policies under Menem with the Cavallo Plan and convertibility, witnessing a second wave of deindustrialization, the reprimarization of the Argentine economy, and Argentina experiencing its worst economic crisis ever with an economic depression to start the twenty-first century.]
