“The purpose of this book is not only to bear witness to the situation of our country as an intellectual exercise, but to analyze in order to understand and develop tools to act and transform the reality in which we are immersed.” This is how the back cover of “The Enjoyment of Cruelty: Argentina in the Time of Milei” reads, a book that has just been published by Editorial Continente and that will be presented on Thursday at 6:30 p.m. in downtown Buenos Aires.
The book has the contributions of Santiago Levin, Alfredo Grande, Nora Merlin, the priest Francisco “Paco” Olivera, Julieta Camels, Carlos Rozanski, Dora Barrancos, Francis Rosemberg and Juan Luis González. The presentation will also be moderated by journalist Pablo Caruso, and will be at the Arturo Jauretche cultural space, at Callao 237. “The fundamental aspect of this work lies in considering whether our regulatory system can tolerate the implementation of a policy of cruelty, in contradiction with the purposes taken into account in the Preamble of our National Constitution, in that it requires the ruler to work for common development, to strengthen inner peace and justice as values in our community,” the book proposes.
