L'hypothèse est que JR adopte des éléments performatifs commeforme d'apparition dans la sphère publique. La première thématique la pandémie et, en particulier, le processusde vaccination et la seconde les niveaux élevés de pauvreté. Tous deux occupent la rue, génèrent des polémiqueset permettent de voir le lien fort entre la droite et le militantisme virtuel. La méthodologie est qualitative, baséesur l'analyse des discours des référents et sur une ethnographie virtuelle dans différents réseaux sociaux. De plus,les performances sont décrites, analysées et comparées. Este artículo trata de dos performances realizadas en 2021 por la agrupación política argentina de derecha Jóvenes Republicanos (JR) y su retoma mediática. La hipótesis es que JR adopta elementos performáticos como una forma de aparición en lo público. La primera performance tematizó la pandemia y, particularmente, el proceso de vacunación y la segunda, los altos niveles de pobreza. Ambas ocuparon la calle, generaron polémica y permitieron ver el fuerte vínculo entre las derechas y los activismos virtuales. La metodología de nuestro estudio es cualitativa, basada en el análisis de los discursos de los referentes y en una etnografía virtual en diferentes redes sociales. Además, se describen, analizan y comparan las performances.
