PHOTOS: Argentina Swears In Chic President

It's easy to write about First Lady Fashion, harder to write about female presidents' fashion -- merely because, unfortunately, there are far fewer to write about.

But we got an opportunity to take in some head of state style as Cristina Fernandez was sworn in as president of Argentina this weekend. And boy, did she look chic.

Center for Economic and Policy Research: The NYT Can't Find Anyone to Say Anything Good About Argentina

The NYT Can't Find Anyone to Say Anything Good About Argentina

Sunday, 23 October 2011 22:47

That is sort of striking since its President Cristina Kirchner seems headed for re-election with a clear majority of the votes. Argentina has also enjoyed the strongest growth over the last decade of any country in Latin America. Nonetheless all 5 of the NYT's sources in an article discussing the election were critical of Kirchner...

El New York Times no encuentra a nadie para decir algo bueno de Argentina

Domingo, 23 de octubre 2011 22:47

Que es una especie de sorprendente ya que su presidenta Cristina Kirchner parece ir a la reelección por una clara mayoría de los votos. Argentina también ha disfrutado de un mayor crecimiento durante la última década de todos los países de América Latina. Sin embargo, todos los 5 de las fuentes del New York Times en un artículo sobre las elecciones fueron críticos de Kirchner ...

The Americas Report: Making Sense of Argentina's Frenzied Policy

The Menges Hemispheric Security Project


Luis Fleischman: Making Sense of Argentina's Frenzied Policy Tuesday, April 26, 2011 The Americas Report Nancy Menges Editor-in-Chief Since the arrival of the Kirchner phenomenon to Argentinean politics in 2003, there has been a sense that history has begun again. The late Nestor Kirchner served as president of the country from 2003 to 2007 when his wife Cristina was elected to the presidency. The Kirchner era is not merely seen as another presidential term that has brought change. It is considered by many of its supporters as an era of major change that is almost revolutionary. Kirchner's popularity is helped by the fact that Argentina has seen economic growth mostly thanks to the international price of Argentinean commodities; mainly soy. However, it is Kirchner's policies of populist redistribution and rejection of Argentina's political past that makes the government revolutionary. Yet, such rejection is only partial since old practices have prevailed in the Kirchner era. On the one hand, Kirchner reopened the trials against the military involved in human rights violations during the dirty war (1977-1983). Thus, the amnesty given by former president, Carlos Menem, to those who killed close to 30,000 people, kidnapped and stole the victims' babies, and tortured thousands of people, was revoked. This is a major historical vindication that made the Kirchner government popular among much of the middle class, human rights groups and most intellectuals. Continue Reading...Continue Reading...

Since the arrival of the Kirchner phenomenon to Argentinean politics in 2003, there has been a sense that history has begun again. The late Nestor Kirchner served as president of the country from 2003 to 2007 when his wife Cristina was elected to the presidency.

Kirchner's popularity is helped by the fact that Argentina has seen economic growth mostly thanks to the international price of Argentinean commodities; mainly soy.

However, it is Kirchner's policies of populist redistribution and rejection of Argentina's political past that makes the government revolutionary. Yet, such rejection is only partial since old practices have prevailed in the Kirchner era.
