Although I haven't seen this reported in mainstream media (I don't spend much time watching it), there have been reports in CNN, Chicago Tribune, The Guardian, BBC, etc, of huge demonstrations in Argentina against the populist Kirchener government. Cartalucci finds evidence that this has been engineered by behind-the-scenes actors promoting neo-liberal agendas. As is typical in such situations, we see the footprints of Goldman Sachs here. We also see that social media has been used as was the case in other "color revolution" protests.
For more information regarding these protests and neo-liberal actions in South America, I recommend the following:
- "Color Revolutions: Argentina Next?" by Cartalucci.
- "What is driving Argentina's protest movement?" a 25 minute video discussion from Al Jazeera. I especially recommend the segment by independent journalist based in Buenos Aires, Francesca Fiorentini, found between 3:50m to 6:10m in the video.
- "Argentina’s Pulp Fiction: Grupo Clarín and Freedom of the Press" from In These Times.
- "The Paraguayan Coup: How agribusiness, landowning and media elite, and the U.S. are paving a way for regional destabilization" by Francesca Fiorentini from WarTimes.
