It argues that these effects contributed to the emergence of a youth temperament critical of politics, the economy and the “state of the State” that is born from the concrete experiences that the subjects elaborate in their daily lives and that we will call “betterism”. At the same time, we ask ourselves about the political capitalization of this process by the right-wing forces, particularly in the current juncture by the figure of Javier Milei of the party La Libertad Avanza (LLA). Thus, through the analysis of qualitative materials -focus groups, biographical interviews, participant observations in political events, survey of social networks-, we investigate the youth structure of reception of the interpellation of the libertarian discourse. Este artículo analiza los efectos del triple fracking pandémico sobre las subjetividades de las juventudes de sectores populares. Sostiene que esos efectos contribuyeron a la emergencia de un temperamento juvenil crítico con la política, la economía y el “estado del Estado” que nace de las experiencias concretas que los sujetos elaboran en sus vidas cotidianas y que llamaremos “mejorismo”. A su vez, nos preguntamos por la capitalización política de este proceso por parte de las fuerzas de derecha, en particular en la actual coyuntura por la figura de Javier Milei del partido La Libertad Avanza (LLA). Así a través del análisis de materiales cualitativos –grupos focales, entrevistas biográficas, observaciones participantes en eventos políticos, relevamiento de redes sociales–, se indaga en la estructura juvenil de acogida de la interpelación del discurso libertario. Este artigo analisa os efeitos da tripla fratura pandêmica nas subjetividades dos jovens dos setores populares. Ele sustenta que seus efeitos contribuíram para o surgimento de um temperamento juvenil crítico da política, da economia e do “estado do Estado” que nasce das experiências concretas que os sujeitos desenvolvem no seu quotidiano e que chamaremos de “melhorismo”. Ao mesmo tempo, nos questionamos sobre a capitalização política deste processo pelas forças de direita, particularmente na situação atual pela figura de Javier Milei, do partido La Libertad Avanza (LLA). Assim, por meio das análises de materiais qualitativos –grupos focais, entrevistas biográficas, observações participantes em eventos políticos e pesquisas de redes sociais–, investiga-se a estrutura juvenil que acolhe a interpelação do discurso libertário. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/13357 10.34096/cas.i58.13357 spa Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, UBA https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/13357/12254 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/13357/12607 Derechos de autor 2023 Nicolás Welschinger Cuadernos de antropología social; Núm. 58 (2023): Dossier Panoramas de las etnografías de la política sobre el mundo popular; 29-52 1850-275X 0327-3776 Youth Pandemic State Entrepreneurs Juventudes Pandemia Estado Emprendedores Juventude Pandemia Estado Empreendedores Young improvers.
