| description | We focus on the group of technocrats who held the highest positions of the main governmental institutions between 1980 and 1990. How do they enter, circulate within and leaving from elite of power? We return to the power elite theories of Wright Mills and John Scott due to the importance of the institutions where power lies and where the country's momentous decisions are made. We use Pareto's idea of circulation of elites because it fits with some features of those who enter to the power elite. It is also useful to understand certain antidemocratic practices used by the political class in order to stay in power. |

Estudiamos al grupo de tecnócratas que ocuparon los cargos más altos de las principales instituciones de gobierno entre 1980 y 1990. ¿Cómo entran, circulan y salen de la elite del poder? Retomamos el criterio de elite del poder de Wright Mills y de John Scott dada la importancia de las instituciones donde este se ejerce y donde se toman las decisiones trascendentales del país. Adscribimos la idea paretiana de circulación de las elites porque encaja con algunas características de quienes ingresan a la elite del poder. También, es útil para entender ciertas prácticas antidemocráticas de la clase política para mantenerse en el poder. 2017-12-29 2022-03-15T15:10:54Z 2022-03-15T15:10:54Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://www.revistas.usp.br/prolam/article/view/133691 10.11606/issn.1676-6288.prolam.2017.133691 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/22707 spa https://www.revistas.usp.br/prolam/article/view/133691/137399 Copyright (c) 2017 Verónica De la torre Oropeza application/pdf Universidade de São Paulo - Programa de Pós-graduação em Integração da América Latina Brazilian Journal of Latin American Studies; v. 16 n. 30 (2017); 42-72 Brazilian Journal of Latin American Studies; Vol. 16 No. 30 (2017); 42-72 1676-6288 1676-6288 |
