Abstract
CASSINI, Lorenzo; GARCIA-ZANOTTI, Gustavo and SCHORR, Martín. ECONOMIC POWER IN KIRCHNERIST ARGENTINA. Semest. Econ. [online]. 2018, vol.21, n.47, pp.203-228. ISSN 0120-6346. https://doi.org/10.22395/seec.v21n47a8.
In this paper, the economic power of Argentina during the Kirchnerist period (2003-2015) is analyzed. To do that, the companies with the highest turnover in the country were analyzed in order to observe the degree of concentration in the production and provision of foreign currency through the trade balance. In addition, changes in the sectoral composition and origin of capital were observed. It is concluded that, during the Kirchnerist period, the structural predominance of large firms was consolidated, while a high level of foreignization of that business elite tended to crystallize, in a scenario marked by an incipient rise of a handful of national capitals and a certain return of the State.
