Abstract
SOPRANO, Germán. Doña Silvia: Political Networks In The Peronist Party In The Province Of Misiones During A Local Electoral Campaign. Andes [online]. 2008, n.19, pp.119-155. ISSN 1668-8090.
This ethnography analyzes the ways in which organization and sociability in the Partido Justicialista (Peronism) in the Province of Misiones, Argentina, take place. The research concentrates on the participation of a Peronist leader in the political networks of Posadas city during a local electoral campaign. The paper analyses personal relations within these political networks, reciprocal obligations and material and symbolical exchanges between people with equal and different political, social, economic and cultural capital. The conformation of these political networks can be compared to other phenomena as patronage and clientelism, largely studied by Anthropology.
Keywords : Political Networks; Peronism; Patronage; Clientelism.
