Social Movements in Argentina Mobilise Against Macri
The intensified struggle is in response to the desperate situation that Argentinians have to face because of a spiraling economic crisis brought about by Mauricio Macri's neoliberal policies.
On August 22, social movements, trade unions as well as left-wing political parties carried out several marches and organised “people’s pots” (community canteens) across Argentina, demanding measures that guarantee access to basic necessities in the face of inflation, which worsened after the further devaluation of the Argentine Peso after the primary elections in the country.
