Argentina: The next government’s economic policies

There are two ways to think about Argentina’s economic problems in the current election period. One is to form a diagnosis, define priorities and decide a plan of action, popular or unpopular. A second approach is to think of economic policy primarily as a way of winning votes and gaining power, knowing that once in office something rather different may be required. Most election campaigns see some kind of mix between these two approaches. So far in Argentina, the main candidates are favouring the second, electorally-led approach. But as the polls get closer they will face increasing pressure to get down to brass tacks.
