Argentina: 100 days of change

10
May 2016
Santiago Villar 

This podcast is performed by Santiago Villar. In December 2015 a new President took office in Argentina: Mauricio Macri. These elections left behind 12 years of government of the "Victory Front", headed by Nestor Kirchner (2003-2007) and his wife Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (2007-2015). The new president will face several challenges such as inflation, stagnation, high levels of corruption and an increasing fiscal deficit, among other. Since his party ("Let's Change") will not have majority within the Parliament, he will need to reach agreements with other parties in order to move forward with his government agenda. Through this talk we will try to evaluate the first 100 days of Mauricio Macri's government and to present a possible future scenario for the rest of the year 2016.

    La présence de la France au Sahel n’est pas un sujet facile à discuter, à commenter ou à traiter. D’une part, l’intervention française, en 2013, (Opération Serval), avait permis de prolonger l’existence de l’Etat malien qui, sans l’opération française, n’aurait pas pu résister aux menées terroristes qui visaient Bamako. D’autre part, la présence française semble ne rien pouvoir changer à l’avancée du terrorisme dans la région, le phénomène semble même gagner du terrain devant l’imp ...

Given the decreasing ability to understand and assimilate the amount of changes, mutations, and crises, one would wonder: what happened to the global order? How has -in this short period of time- the power of its values and institutions that much decreased? What are the causes for these protectionist and massive populist waves? Why are we witnessing an increasing settlement of conflic ...
