Deshecho en Argentina. Desarticulación del programa satelital en tiempos neoliberales

Abstract

In 2006, the National State created the Argentine Satellite Solutions Company SA (ARSAT SA) to guarantee the occupation of the orbital positions assigned to Argentina by the International Telecommunications Union, until then occupied by a satellite operated by a company with foreign capital. . State intervention allowed the creation of a highly complex techno-productive sector. At the end of 2015, a government aligned with neoliberal principles took office that discontinued the satellite development project and altered the role of the State as a planning agent of the economy. The article aims to analyze how and why the accumulation pattern implemented in Argentina at the end of 2015 interrupted an industrial development process in a strategic area of ​​the economy.
