When this interview was recorded, Argentina had just sworn in a new president of the Nation, raising many questions about the political future of the South American country. The freshly installed Head of State had led a peculiar campaign, had promised to slash government spending, in a country where half the population receives support from the State. His radical rhetoric against the political elite had galvanized the youth, but also contributed to stoke fear on the future of democracy in Argentina. In this interview, Camila Crescimbeni, former MP and member of the ADEL 2023 cohort, answered questions on her own political engagement and on her perception of what the close future of Argentina might look like.

This is not a temporary dysfunction, but a systemic failure of legitimacy. From the invasion of Iraq und ...
