FARIAS, María Laura. THE MANAGERIAUZATION OF STATE RELATIONS IN ARGENTINA (2015-2019): DID THE CHANGE MAKE US CHANGE?. []. , 31, 79, pp.57-69.   17--2021. ISSN 0121-5051.  https://doi.org/10.15446/innovar.v31n79.91895.

As a result of its recent emergence, we will study the direct insertion of the main articulators of management in senior public management positions in the Argentine State and its impact on organizational dynamics. The inauguration of Mauricio Macri as president meant the appointment of senior officials with broad experience in the management of large companies, who sought a transformation of the state nature (conceived as inefficient and bureaucratic) towards an approach more akin to the managerial criteria of agility, modernity and effectiveness. By studying the insertion of these managers in the Argentine State structure, we will examine how their participation in public management influenced their conceptions of the State and state workers, as well as their perception regarding the State's subjectivity and what is considered "public." For this purpose, we rely on a qualitative approach, through interviews and analysis of documentary materials, that will allow us to know how the characteristics of the State and its employees are perceived, offering renewed conceptions by interviewees. Finally, we will analyze these managers' previous ideas about the State and their preconceptions around State workers to know how they addressed such conceptualizations while in office.
