Sumario:One year after its approval, the foundations of the Extended Fund Facility Program signed between Argentina and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) are being revised completely. This country has been hit by an historic drought, while the IMF remains unflexible on their demands for fiscal adjustment, devaluation and capital account liberalization. Aiming to an encounter between philosophy and economy, this article seeks to examine the terms and results of the latest program between Argentina and the IMF. We will analyze in which ways this agreement reinserts the country in a scheme of debt-guilt as a technology of power, what are the reasons behind IMF’s recent crisis of credibility, and what margin is left for a political praxis that aims to escape the punitive matrix of the international financial architecture.
