Expertos, trabajo relacional y la producción de evidencia en torno del Plan Nacional de Primera Infancia, Argentina (2015-2019)

This article focuses on the practices deployed by experts in shaping an agenda on early childhood in Argentina, between 2015-2019, because it is a political juncture marked not only by the change of government management, but also of the political sign of the ruling party, as well as by debates on the role of the State and other actors in the definition of the public sphere. Based on ethnographic doctoral research, the experts were analyzed as knowledge brokers, who move, translate and assemble knowledge and global agendas, but above all networks of influence and links, so that their practices make up a particular relational work. Early childhood, in turn, appeared as a critical and polemic node, which requires the production of interpretative frameworks and persuasion strategies, as well as the sustained formation of alliances and networks over time.
