Descripción
Sumario:The objective of this article is to describe and analyze the cycle of protests in the interior of the country during the '90s, which culminated in the conflictive process of December 2001 and represented a milestone in the political, economic, social and cultural aspects of Argentina. This process started with the return of democracy in 1983, which put an end to convertibility. The text is organized as follows: first, we present a chronological reconstruction of the protests, which is not intended to be exhaustive, to then conceptualize them on the basis of the contributions made by some authors. Then we focus on the emergence of different methods of protest that are at the core during the decade: outbreaks, popular rebellions and the blocking of roads and streets. Finally, we analyze the structural causes in order to understand the type and specificity of the cycle. The focal point is the combination of spontaneity and organization, the classic union matrix and the irruption of other actors, as well as the “novel” forms of action and the “traditional” ones.
