Episodes
El principio del fin
December 20, 2001 marks the end of a government in freefall, but also a day of tragedy as violent repression to protests results in the loss of 39 lives. Fourteen months before this infamous day, President Fernando de la Rúa seeks to overcome Argentina's economic crisis by appointing an unpopular minister of economy.
La plata no llega
New minister Cavallo's plan to rescue the country's troubling economy with IMF support faces a major setback after 9/11; talk of a devaluation begins to build. The government is pummeled at the ballot box by Peronism and scratch votes, and De la Rúa continues to look at a potential co-government with a controversial figure.
Más vale malo conocido
Duhalde maneuvers to form an opposition and meets with the IMF in hopes of having his moment. De la Rúa continues to back Cavallo, resisting calls from his chief of cabinet and former president Alfonsín. A government measure intended to prevent capital flight sets Argentina on a course for economic collapse.
Diciembre 2001
The president's declaration fails to quell the unrest as people from all walks of life take to the streets in protest and unite with demands for the government's removal. Meanwhile, internal negotiations go on through the night of December 19, and a chorus calling for Cavallo's resignation begins to grow louder.
El fin y el principio
The Argentine crisis hits its peak on December 20. Government forces employ violence to repress the protests, after being given the order to clear Plaza de Mayo and indiscriminately detain whomever. Peronism rejects the government's calls for national unity and the only recourse left for the president is to resign.
¿Todos unidos triunfaremos?
Peronism oversees the transition while the president of the Senate assumes the presidency on an interim basis. Behind the scenes, a debate takes place on whether to call early elections. An unprecedented five presidents are sworn in over a period of eleven days. In early 2002, Duhalde makes a bold promise.
