The debate is by the hegemony of economic power
political counterpoint this time seems to revive the discussions in 2008 about policies economic reforms. What is at stake is the country's economic model, ie what is produced and for whom? This also involves defining the distribution of national income. There is no possibility of an equitable distribution of income if not changed the production model. It is a debate that goes beyond Argentina, which begins to substantiation by Latin American and Caribbean region and even in the world due to the crisis of capitalism.
An example of this is the opening of the agricultural shows in Palermo. It is noteworthy to verify that the dominant sector of the business core of the agricultural sector, grouped in the Liaison Committee, reiterated his claim at this juncture to eliminate export tax (20.724 million pesos as of June 30, about 5,000 million dollars for half a year) [2], while claiming its historical role and present in the political direction of society.
The moment is considered auspicious by the data on the evolution of the economy. It is a time for the offensive. ECLAC's forecast [3] points to Argentina a growth of 6.8% for 2010. However, the expectations, not only in government, are above the numeral, especially in the agricultural sector, leaving in the past drought and falling international prices, which affects the profitability of 2009.
This year comes with prospects for income growth and major land owners do not want to resign a new cycle of growth of earnings and potential for accumulation, which are what ultimately define the process of economic domination, political and ideological capitalist society. Especially for the Rural Society is set the challenge in the dispute for the hegemony of the ruling class in Argentina.
Recover the model of domination of the "centennial"
Therefore, in the discourse of Hugo Biolcati [4], President of the Society Rural in the opening of the exhibition of Palermo recover memory "Centennial" (1910). Without doubt the clearest moment of hegemony of the landed oligarchy and livestock, associated to power refrigerators, railroads and banks, mostly foreign owned, mainly British.
us agree that memory is recovered by the renewed presence of a base material that supports the current production model, economic policy emerged whose origins refer to the 90's and have not been modified. Since the adoption of GE products in 1996, times of Felipe Solá (Secretariat Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries), Domingo Cavallo (Ministry of Economy) and Carlos Menem (President's Office), broke the "soy revolution" (expansion of the production frontier, from 6 million to 17 million hectares) that affects diversity productive agriculture and especially family.
not just a matter of soy, because also at that time approved the mining treaty between Argentina and Chile to exploit the range. The country is becoming a major recipient of foreign investment in power and mining, affecting the land and the environment, contributing to prey natural resources.
privilege to transgenic agricultural production, especially soybeans, is accompanied by the mega open-pit mining. Both the agriculture and mining needs of the technology package in the hands of foreign capital, thus resulting in a strategic alliance for dominance. The current production model in Argentina is associated in the halls of power to concentrate more capital locally and abroad.
The dome of power is a central place that the field will compete for business in other sectors who were able to gain ground at other times. The case of sector industrial import substitution period (period especially criticized by the head of the SRA, giving rise to "straying"), or the speculative bank in times of financial liberalization. The convertibility allowed a certain hegemony, as amended after the 2001 crisis and the discharge of the convertible. The high growth of the economy between 2003 and 2007 masked the differences, which reappeared as income dispute with the return of inflation.
think the alternative
the subject is clear social and economic domination, disputes and production model. Because of this, we believe that ethical criticism is not enough, that appeal to the generosity of the powerful palliative distribution of income. Not enough compensation policies favored by the primary fiscal surplus. Is needed, however, the constitution of collective entities organized to sustain another production model, another economic model to another country, with an equation of the income distribution that satisfies the majority social needs unmet.
But we insist, that means profound changes in economic policy orientation. Patches is not enough compensatory social policies. The substance is changes in the order of social relations of production. That is the unresolved debate, and essentially, the challenge to build if you think of emancipatory perspective.
