GENE, Mariana. The Rise of the Argentine Electoral Right in the 21st century. Rev. Urug. Cienc. Polít. [online]. 2024, vol.33, e202.  Epub Dec 01, 2024. ISSN 0797-9789.  https://doi.org/10.26851/rucp.33.3.

Throughout the twentieth century the electoral right was weak in Argentina, but in the twenty-first century that history was to change. This article analyzes the slow growth of the electoral right from the 2001 crisis to the present, showing its passage from the margins to the center of power and from moderation to radicalism. It analyzes the historical contexts that propitiated this development, the programmatic stances and the party building of the different forces. It also examines the relationship between the conventional right and the far-right in our days. Thus, the article provides insights to understand the paths of the right in this century and the Argentine case in the global map of the radical right-wing parties.

Keywords : right wing; Argentina; political parties; polarization; radical right.
