Against Kirchnerism, everything was easier

The article argues that the Argentine government faces the challenge of demonstrating its ability to effectively govern despite a weakened opposition.

In the article, the author discusses the current political landscape in Argentina, emphasizing the weakened state of the opposition, particularly Kirchnerism, and the resultant challenges facing the government. The author notes that previously, it was easier for the government to present its case against Kirchnerism, as many citizens were averse to returning to that political past. However, the political dynamic has shifted, and now the government must navigate a more complex landscape without the clear target of Kirchnerism.

The writer contends that this new political reality requires the government to show that it can govern effectively and cohesively, even with a virtually non-existent opposition. This involves a need for coordination within the government itself, as internal divisions could lead to self-sabotage. The emphasis here is on the necessity of looking forward and constructing a governance strategy that addresses the stagnation in the country while maintaining political unity.

Furthermore, the article highlights the critical context of Argentina's economic situation, where the country has not made significant progress in formal private sector employment since 2012. This stasis complicates the government's efforts, as it must contend with both internal governance challenges and external economic pressures. The implications of this situation are profound, as the government’s success is now more reliant than ever on its ability to unify and form actionable policies that resonate with a fragmented electorate.
