Bibliography

Javier Gerardo Milei[nb 1] (born 22 October 1970) is an Argentine politician, economist, and author who is the president-elect of Argentina.

Milei taught university courses in macroeconomics, economic growth, microeconomics, and mathematics for economists. He wrote numerous books and hosted radio programs. In 2021, Milei was elected to the Argentine Chamber of Deputies, representing the City of Buenos Aires for La Libertad Avanza. As a national deputy, he limited his legislative activities to voting, focusing instead on critiquing what he calls Argentina's political elite and its propensity for high government spending. Milei pledged not to raise taxes and donated his national deputy salary through a monthly raffle. He defeated economy minister Sergio Massa in the second round of the 2023 Argentine presidential election on a platform that held the ideological dominance of Peronism responsible for the still ongoing 2018 Argentine monetary crisis.

Milei is known for his flamboyant personality, distinctive personal style, and strong media presence. He has been described politically as a far-right populist, a right-wing libertarian, and supporter of laissez-faire capitalism, aligning specifically with minarchist and anarcho-capitalist principles. His views distinguish him in the Argentine political landscape and have garnered significant public attention and polarizing reactions. He has proposed a comprehensive overhaul of the country's fiscal and structural policies. Milei supports freedom of choice on drug policy, guns, prostitution, same-sex marriage, sexual preference, and gender identity, while opposing abortion and euthanasia. In foreign policy, he advocates for closer relations with the United States, supporting Ukraine in response to Russia's invasion, and distancing Argentina from geopolitical entanglement with China.

Early life and education

Javier Gerardo Milei was born on 22 October 1970 in Palermo, Buenos Aires.[1][2] He grew up in the Villa Devoto neighborhood and later moved to Sáenz Peña, Buenos Aires.[3] Milei's mother, Alicia, was a housewife,[4] and his father, Norberto, was a bus driver.[5][6] His parents, according to Milei in 2018, beat and verbally abused him,[7] causing him to not speak to them for a decade;[4] he regarded them as dead.[8] He was supported by his maternal grandmother and his younger sister Karina,[1] with whom he had a close bond.[9]

Milei attended Catholic schools,[1] including the secondary school Cardenal Copello.[3] At school, he was nicknamed El Loco ("The Crazy One") for his outbursts and aggressive rhetoric.[1] In his late teens and early adulthood, Milei sang in the cover band Everest, which mostly played Rolling Stones covers. He also played goalkeeper for the Chacarita Juniors association football team until 1989,[5][10] when there was hyperinflation in Argentina and he committed to a career in economics.[11]

The collapse of Argentina's exchange rate led to Milei becoming interested in economics during the early 1980s.[3][5] Milei studied introductory economics and the law of supply and demand, which he thought seemed to be at odds with the ongoing hyperinflation; he said he saw people throwing "themselves on top of the merchandise" in a supermarket and began to study economics in more detail to understand it.[12] Milei obtained an economics degree (licentiate) from the private University of Belgrano and two master's degrees from the Instituto de Desarrollo Económico y Social [es] and the private Torcuato di Tella University.[3]

Economics career

For over 20 years, Milei has been a professor of macroeconomics, economics of growth, microeconomics, and mathematics for economists.[3][13] He specializes in economic growth and has taught several economic subjects in Argentine universities and abroad. He has written more than 50 academic papers.[14][15]

Milei became the chief economist at Máxima AFJP, a private pension company; a head economist at Estudio Broda, a financial advising company; and a government consultant at the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes. He was also a senior economist at HSBC Argentina.[15] He served as chief economist at several national and international government public bodies.[3] Since 2012, Milei has led the division of Economic Studies at Fundación Acordar, a national think tank.[15] He is also a member of the B20 and a member of the Economic Policy Group of International Chamber of Commerce, an advisor to the G20. For 15 years, he worked at the private company Corporación América as the chief economist and financial adviser to Eduardo Eurnekian.[16]

Milei is the author of several books,[17] including El camino del libertario.[18] He has a notable presence on television, with a 2018 ranking by Ejes showing him as the most interviewed economist on television, at 235 interviews and 193,347 seconds.[19] Milei also hosted his own radio show, Demoliendo mitos (Demolishing Myths),[20] featuring regular appearances by Alberdian and right-wing libertarian personalities, including the economist and businessman Gustavo Lazzari, the lawyer Pablo Torres Barthe, and the political scientist María Zaldívar.[21][22]

Early political career

Rise to prominence

During the 2010s, Milei achieved significant notoriety and public exposure in debates developed on Argentine television programs characterized by insults to his rivals,[23][24][25] foul language,[26][27] and aggressive rhetoric when expressing and debating his ideals and beliefs,[28][29] such as with Buenos Aires chief of government Horacio Rodríguez Larreta.[30][31] This led many commentators to label him antipolitical or disruptive.[32] Ted Cruz, a United States senator, shared an interview between Viviana Canosa [es] and Milei on Twitter, jokingly proposing to invite him to the 2024 Republican Party presidential debates.[33]

In February 2017, Milei generated controversy by naming Domingo Cavallo Argentina's best economy minister, a choice that remains contentious due to Cavallo's unfavorable image in the country.[34] In November 2017, he caused a stir by declaring that "the main producer of Argentina's economists is a Marxist indoctrination center", in reference to the Faculty of Economic Sciences, University of Buenos Aires, leading to what he called "the ubiquitous proliferation of Keynesian brutes".[35]

On 26 June 2018, Milei called journalist Teresita Frías burro (literally "donkey", it is used to for "ignorant" or "uneducated" in Argentine slang) after she criticized his ideological views as totalitarian.[36][37] As he refused to apologize, Milei was accused of exerting gender violence, and a local court mandated a psychological examination. Family and Gender judge Carmelo Paz forbade him from participating in public gatherings as a panelist or lecturer within the boundaries of the city of Metan, under the threat of legal action.[38][39] In 2018, he made his acting debut in his play El consultorio de Milei, with Claudio Rico and Diego Sucalesca. In 2019, Noticias named him one of the most influential people in Argentina. In 2020, he spoke in favor of protests against the government led by Alberto Fernández.[3]

2021 legislative campaign

During his campaign to become a member of the Argentine Chamber of Deputies, Milei focused on Buenos Aires neighborhoods, where he took strolls and had talks with ordinary people.[40] He pledged not to support any tax increases or new taxes.[41] He ran under the slogan "I didn't come here to lead lambs but to awaken lions", denouncing what he saw as a political caste,[42][43][44] which he said was composed of "useless, parasitic politicians who have never worked".[45] He used phrases like "I'm here to kick these criminals out",[1][46] and was especially supported by youth;[47] he promoted his political views on television, radio, and YouTube.[3] Additionally, Milei reconciled with his parents.[48]

In July 2021, Milei established the coalition La Libertad Avanza (Freedom Moves Forward),[49][50] which secured third place in primary elections with 13.66 percent of the vote and third in the 2021 Argentine legislative election with 17 percent,[51] and the far-right coalition entered the Argentine Congress.[52][53][54] They performed best in Cordoba and Santa Fe, the second- and third-most populous districts in the country, and performed well in Peronist strongholds in North Tucuman, Salta, La Rioja, and San Juan, and in Santa Cruz in Patagonia, which is considered the cradle of Kirchnerism.[3]

National deputyship

Upon assuming office as deputy, Milei fulfilled one of his campaign promises by raffling his salary to a random person each month, aiming to "return money to the citizens". He described this monthly raffle, which is open to anyone,[55][56] as a way to get rid of what he considered dirty money, saying: "The state is a criminal organization that finances itself through taxes levied on people by force. We are returning the money that the political caste stole."[1]

As a national deputy, Milei had been present in the chamber 52 percent of the time as of April 2023.[57] As of August 2023, he had not proposed any laws or joined any parliamentary commissions.[58][59] One of his absences was particularly criticized by the Juntos por el Cambio opposition because it allowed the national government to raise taxes on plane tickets by a single vote.[60][61][62] His monthly raffle for his salary has given away more than seven million pesos since his parliamentary election.[59]

In July 2023, Milei faced an investigation into alleged selling of candidacies within La Libertad Avanza.[63][64] Businessman Juan Carlos Blumberg said that the coalition "made politics a business", which prompted Milei to deny that there were paid candidates. Milei was also accused of having been funded and supported by Peronism. Journalist Juan Luis González said that Milei "allowed himself to be financed by provincial governments, received technical, logistical, and monetary aid from the Peronism that he claims to fight, threatened all those who wanted to open their mouths".[65] Statements by the prosecutor Ramiro González did not provide concrete data about the allegations. While the investigation was still progressing as of July 2023, Milei dismissed it as a political operation to discredit him,[66] and demanded that Ramiro González be investigated, accusing him of damaging his image.[67]

2023 presidential campaign

Main article: Javier Milei 2023 presidential campaign

A member of the Libertarian Party, Milei ran for president of Argentina as part of La Libertad Avanza. His running mate was Victoria Villarruel.[68][69] His younger sister, Karina Milei, managed his campaign.[3] In May 2022, Milei was rising in the polls.[70] In June 2022, he officially launched his presidential campaign.[71] In March 2023, a poll showed that 17 percent of Argentines would vote for him and that his political coalition would become the third parliamentary force in the Argentine Congress. His rhetoric was attractive to under-30 voters born during the 1998–2002 Argentine great depression and facing the still ongoing economic stagnation. His supporters include those who once voted for Kirchnerism but would now vote for Milei as a protest even if they did not support his economic ideas.[72]

As inflation rose above 100 percent in May 2023,[73] Milei's position in the polls rose.[74] In June 2023, the markets welcomed Sergio Massa's presidential candidacy, as it polarized the election between the ruling party and Juntos por el Cambio, reducing what was called the "Milei factor".[75] Notable moments in Milei's campaign included him wielding a chainsaw on stage,[76] smashing a piñata on air to symbolize his plans, calling Pope Francis "a filthy leftist", and praising American gangster Al Capone as "a hero".[77]

Primary elections

In the August primary election, which is seen as an indication of how citizens are likely to vote in the October 2023 Argentine general election,[78] Milei emerged as the leading candidate,[79][80][81] with 30 percent of the vote, ahead of the traditional Peronism–Kirchnerism and Macrism that dominated the country in the 2010s.[3] Milei's win was celebrated by far-right figures including Jair Bolsonaro,[81] José Antonio Kast,[81] Ted Cruz,[33] and the Spanish far-right political party Vox.[82]

Polls had predicted that Massa would secure the most votes as a candidate in the primaries, with Juntos por el Cambio expected to be the most supported coalition overall;[83] Milei polled at about 20 percent,[3] and was seen as an outsider candidate.[84][85] Initially, for the first round of the general election, with the possibility of a runoff in November,[86] Peronists saw Milei as a possible ally who would divide the votes of the centre-right coalition.[87]

General elections

As a result of his strong performance in the primaries, Milei was considered the front-runner in the general election. His rise has been placed within the context of the last two presidencies, those of Mauricio Macri and Alberto Fernández. On 22 October, Milei advanced to the runoff, in which he faced Massa.[88] In the runoff on 19 November, Milei defeated Massa in a landslide,[89] and in what was called a historic election.[90] It was the highest percentage of the vote since Argentina's transition to democracy. Observers generally saw Milei's win as a sign more of discontent with the status quo than support for his politics.[77] In his victory speech, Milei pledged a new political era,[91] vowing to begin "the reconstruction of Argentina" and end its economic decline.[92] His prospective foreign minister Diana Mondino [es] also announced Argentina would pause its accession to BRICS.[93] Milei is to take office as president on 10 December.[94][95]

Public image

Main article: Public image of Javier Milei

Milei has cultivated a complex and controversial public image marked by a blend of populist, right-wing libertarian, and conservative ideologies. Known for his ultra-liberal economic views and right-wing populist rhetoric, Milei's political stance has been subject to various interpretations by international media and political commentators. His rise to prominence during the 2023 presidential campaign, fueled by his primary win, sparked widespread attention. Milei's proposals, including the abolition of the Central Bank of Argentina and the adoption of currency substitution through dollarization, have been both acclaimed and criticized. Despite criticism, his advocacy of economic liberalism, fiscal conservatism, and reduced government intervention has resonated with a segment of the Argentine electorate frustrated by traditional political structures. Milei's public image can be seen as encapsulating the polarizing nature of his political and economic ideologies within the context of contemporary Argentine politics.[citation needed]

Milei has been nicknamed el Peluca ("The Wig") due to his eccentric hairstyle.[118][119] He has consistently said that he does not comb his hair, leading to significant press attention;[120] only Lilia Lemoine, vice president of his party and a cosplayer, is able to style his hair.[121] Milei is a cosplayer himself, and has a superhero persona called "General AnCap".[122] He also champions free love.[123] In a June 2020 interview, he disclosed his involvement in several threesomes and his role as a neotantra instructor, describing himself as a tantric sex instructor,[124] claiming to be able to withhold ejaculation for three months.[125] In addition to his el Loco ("The Crazy One") nickname, news outlets called him a "rock singer and tantric sex instructor",[126] a "former tantric sex coach",[81] a "mixture of a messianic preacher and a rock star",[76] and likened him to both Trump and Wolverine.[127] Milei calls himself "The King of the Jungle".[128][129]

In July 2023, Juan Luis González released El Loco, an unauthorized biography of Milei, whom he interviewed several times.[65][130][131] The book sought to define the New Right in Argentina, and González said he could not avoid discussing Milei, including his eccentric personal life, ranging from telepathy and esotericism to speaking with his dead dog to his "God-sent mission" to become Argentina's president.[65][130][131] In the book's preface, González wrote: "With the passing of the months, the interviews, the off-the-record meetings, following invoices, stamps, and paperwork, the work went from being a field one with almost academic edges to a tragicomic thriller, halfway between Raymond Chandler's black noirs and John Kennedy Toole's A Confederacy of Dunces."[65]

Personal life

Milei is not married and said that, if elected president, he would have his sister take the role of First Lady of Argentina.[132] In August 2023, Milei announced that he is dating actress Fátima Flórez.[133] Previously, he dated the singer Daniela Mori.[134]

Religious views

While raised Catholic,[135][136] Milei has been critical of the Catholic Church under Pope Francis,[137] whom on different occasions he called a "Jesuit who promotes communism", "an unpresentable and disastrous character", "a fucking communist", "communist turd", "a piece of shit", and "a filthy leftist".[138] He also accused him of "preaching communism to the world" and being "the representative of the evil one on Earth" for promoting the option for the poor, a Catholic social justice doctrine of aid to the underprivileged. As a result, the highest authorities of the Argentine Episcopal Conference and other Catholics criticized him.[139][140]

Milei's coalition La Libertad Avanza considers social justice theft because it relies on tax revenues, and Milei has said that Jesus did not pay taxes. In response, about the then upcoming 2023 elections, Francis said: "The extreme right always reconstructs itself, it is the triumph of selfishness over communitarianism. ... I am terrified of saviors of the nation without a political party history."[141] Milei also cited Biblical passages to criticize the state, which he describes as "an invention of the evil one".[100] To show what has been regarded as his rejection of the state, he has repeatedly posed the radical dilemma: "If I had to choose between the state and the mafia, I would choose the mafia. Because the mafia has codes, the mafia adapts, the mafia doesn't lie. And above all, the mafia competes."[142]

Before November 2023, Milei said he had contemplated converting to Judaism but that observing the Jewish Sabbath could pose challenges if he became president.[121][143][144] In a 2018 Radio El Mundo interview, he expressed his belief in the existence of God.[130] He reiterated this belief in 2022 to the journalist Luis Novaresio, who retorted: "How can a guy as pragmatic as you believe in something unverifiable?"[130] Milei responded: "That is your case. Very strong things have happened to me, which exceed any scientific explanation."[130] According to Milei, he has had conversations with God, whom he calls "the number 1", and God told him that he had a mission to enter politics and not stop until he became president.[145] Milei also reads the Torah daily and has visited the grave of Orthodox rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson.[146][147] In November 2023, it was reported that Milei intended to convert to Judaism.[136]

Dogs

Further information: Conan the Barbarian (dog)

Milei owns five English Mastiffs, with the progenitor being Conan, who died in 2017 after suffering from spinal cancer.[65][130][131] He considers Conan his son and has named four of Conan's six clones, including one named after the original and another named Angelito,[148] Milton (in honor of Milton Friedman), Murray (in honor of Murray Rothbard), Robert, and Lucas (both named after Robert Lucas Jr.).[149][150] Milei said that he cloned Conan because he understands cloning as "a way of approaching eternity".[131] To do this, he went to a clinic in the U.S.; the process cost him about $50,000.[131] He has called his dogs his four-legged children and thanked them after his 2023 primary win.[3][151]

Milei stated that he communicates with the dogs through a mystic,[1] and that he seeks counseling from them.[77] For example, he commented that the new Conan provides ideas on general strategy, Robert is the one who makes him "see the future and learn from mistakes", Milton is in charge of political analysis, and Murray of the economy.[152] When asked about this by El País journalist Martín Sivak and Nicolás Lucca of Radio Rivadavia, Milei did not deny it, and said: "What I do with my spiritual life and in my house is my business. If Conan advises me on politics, it means that he is the best consultant of humanity."[130]

Milei said he had dialogues with the likes of Rothbard and Ayn Rand. In 2015, he cited Conan as a source of inspiration for his writing.[130] Of Conan's death in 2017, Milei said that he had not really died (he called it "his physical disappearance" and continued to refer to Conan in the present tense) but gone to sit next to God to protect him, and that it was thanks to this that he had begun to have talks with God himself.[153] According to González, Milei wrote to a friend in a chat: "I saw the resurrection of Christ three times, but I can't talk about it. They would say I'm crazy."[65] According to various sources consulted by La Nación, Milei maintains that he and Conan have a mission assigned to them by God and that he met Conan, who was a lion, as a gladiator in the Roman Colosseum about 2,000 years ago.[154]
