Los The origins of Propuesta Republicana (PRO) in Santa Fe (2009-2015): actors and policies networks
Abstract
There are several studies about the emergence of the PRO in the City of Buenos Aires (CABA) and its subsequent electoral growth until it achieved victory in the 2015 presidential elections (Bellotti, Morressi and Vommaro, 2014; Vommaro and Morressi, 2015). However, fewer studies account for how the party was formed in the different provinces of Argentina before its national victory. In this paper we investigate the origins and expansion of the PRO in Santa Fe, a district where the party was very close to winning the Governor elections twice (2011 and 2015). From a perspective based on political sociology, we give an account of the actors that intervened in its formation and analyse whether its origins and provenance are similar to those observed in the case of the City of Buenos Aires. The work uses a qualitative methodology and is based on the analysis of journalistic news obtained from the main graphic media of the Province: mainly the newspapers El Litoral (Santa Fe), La Capital (Rosario) and La Política On-Line. The period 2009-2015 is studied, identified as a key juncture for the emergence and consolidation of the PRO in Santa Fe.Downloads
