Con base en una serie de revisiones analíticas de tres rondas de trabajo de campo etnográfico que se realizaron en Buenos Aires, Argentina, y un enfoque microsociológico de análisis empírico, este artículo se propone reorientar el estudio de la política clientelar hacia su carácter cotidiano y reconocer el importante papel que desempeñan los estrechos lazos que mantienen los agentes mediadores con sus seguidores más cercanos y confiables, con el fin de comprender y explicar mejor los rasgos prácticos del dominio clientelista. En contra de lo que comúnmente se afirma, este trabajo sostiene que la política clientelar tiene lugar en la rutina de la vida diaria (no sólo cuando hay campañas y elecciones) y que el comportamiento de los clientes más leales no debe entenderse y explicarse como producto de la acción racional ni de conductas normativas, sino como resultado de hábitos clientelares, es decir, un conjunto de disposiciones políticas de tipo cognitivo y afectivo, que se producen con las interacciones repetidas que ocurren en el seno de los círculos internos de los seguidores de los agentes mediadores.... view less

On the bases of a series of analytical exams of three rounds of ethnographic field-work in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and with a micro-sociological approach of empirical analysis, this article sets out to reorient the study of clienteles' politics towards its every day nature, and recognize the relevant role played by the close links mediating agents keep with their closest and most reliable followers- Thus it aims to contribute to better understand and explain the practical features of clientelist domination. Against what’s commonly asserted, this paper maintains clientelist politics takes place in daily life's routine (and not only in the context of campaigns and elections), and that the behaviour of the most loyal clients must not be understood nor explained as a product of rational action or normative conducts, but as resultant of clientelist habits, that is, a set of cognitive and affective political dispositions, produced by repeated interactions that take place within the inner circles of the followers of the mediating agents.... view less
