The last twenty years of the Argentinian political context have been strongly characterized by two concepts, considered dichotomic: populism and republicanism. Thus, the administrations or presidents identified as populists found themselves on the opposite side of the protection of institutions; and, the same happened vice versa: those identified as republicans were classified as enemies of the popular. Néstor Kirchner’s speeches have long been associated to the notion of populism. Because of this, any connection to the republican concepts was unthought-of or highly unlikely. Nevertheless, in the present research, we aim to question ourselves regarding the dialogue and the continuity the first kirchnerist administration keeps with regard to two distinctive concepts of the republican tradition, such as the common good and the moral values and/or the morality. On the one hand, we are interested in understanding the bonds Kirchner establishes with these concepts; and, on the other hand, in observing how he engages in a dialogue with the uses and interpretations made about these notions by other political leaders.
