Oficialism and opposition in face of the presidential elections in Argentina

With the participation of analyst Marcos Novaro as guest speaker, CADAL organized a new meeting of Foro Latinoamericano Buenos Aires. Among other issues, Novaro referred to the following questions: Will national competence reduce or can it reemerge, even with a weak and fragmented opposition? Is it possible that CFK wins with more than 50% of the votes? Will there be a ''profundization of the model'' in the direction of a populist radicalization? Can traditional peronism, non-peronist oposition and/or businessmen be a barrier to the ''profundization of the Kirchnerist model''? At the end of the Forum a wine toast was offered sponsored by Bodegas San Huberto.
