Resumen
IGLESIAS, Esteban. Union Action in Contemporary Argentina from the Perspective of New Institutionalism. Pap.polit. [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.2, pp.407-424. ISSN 0122-4409. https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.papo20-2.asac.
The intention of this work is to analyze the scope and limitations of a neo-institutionalist approach of union actors in contemporary Argentina. This theoretical perspective, on the one hand, has forged concepts that became common in political science: union base party, desindicalization supporter, labor base party, segmented neo-corporatism and union revitalization. On the other hand, the explanation of the terms is very similar in spite of the fact that they recount different political processes. For this, the article argues the existence of an explanatory imbalance when the link is approached between institutions and union action. From neo-institutionalism an emphasis is made on the influence of institutions on the possibilities for political action of unions, and no attention is paid to the way in which actors influence the institutional frames. This is relevant in a theoretical approach that tries to prioritize in its analysis 'how actors think'.
