Right wing authoritarianism and social dominance orientation are two main variables for the analysis of different phenomena in Political Psychology. In this line, it is stated that both independent constructs are targeting different worldviews, but that would be found linked, varying its level of relations, based on certain characteristics of the social context in which they are studied. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between the right wing authoritarianism and social dominance orientation in Argentinian socio-political context characterized by its low level of ideological contrast. Thus, the hypothesis tested in the local context, regarding the linkages between the two constructs would be strong in ideological contexts of high polarization and weak political scenarios unstructured depending on the left-right axis Duckitt (2001). To this purpose, we worked with four university students samples (NTotal = 1511), aged between 18 and 52 years old and 1061 of them were women (70.21%). Relations between right wing authoritarianism and social dominance orientation vary in different studies from weak to moderate values ​​(.25 < r <.35; p < .01). On the whole, the particularities acquired by the link between these two constructs in the Argentinian socio-political scenario are discussed and future lines of analysis are suggested.
