This year Argentina has elected as the new president a far-right outsider who not only presented a radical economical program and state reform, but also modified the political scenario and its relationship with a vast majority of the citizens. To understand this phenomenon, we need to look back into the 40 years of Argentina´s uninterrupted democracy and, particularly, in the development of the right-wing political sector that enabled its first democratic victory in 2015. The mentioned evolution of the right-wings is linked to its relationship with the media and the development of new discourses that reintroduced them into democracy, especially the construction of an antagonism between republicanism and populism. By studying these actors and their discourses we will be able to understand their transformation but also its relationship to the decay of previous political and social consensus regarding democracy and the republican institutions.
