Abstract:
This thesis aims to examine the economic and political history of Argentina that led to the historic economic crises of 2001 and then 2014, and consequently the intervention of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), analyzing the underlying causes, socio-economic effects, and long-term implications. Through a historical and critical analysis of economic policies adopted before, during, and after the crises, the work seeks to provide an in-depth understanding of the factors that contributed to the economic and social implosion of the country. Additionally, the role of the IMF in formulating austerity and structural reform policies during the crises is evaluated, and their effects on the Argentine population and national economy are examined. The research aims to provide a comprehensive framework of the challenges and opportunities that Argentina faces on its path to economic recovery and long-term stability.
