| Sumario: | From a sociological perspective of social policies and bodies/emotions, the article aims to analyse the national, provincial and municipal food programmes implemented in La Matanza (Buenos Aires, Argentina), between 2020 and 2024. A matrix was constructed based on an investigation of official websites and documents, in which 25 interventions were recorded that are implemented simultaneously and converge in institutional dependencies, target population, objectives and benefits. From the state’s perspective —embedded in the design of these policies— there is an assumed failure regarding the inadequate access to and consumption of food by those categorized as ‘socially vulnerable.’ The proposed adequate, acceptable, and desirable solution involves supplementing their diets and educating them on what, how, and where they should eat, buy, cook, and produce food. This pedagogization entails the responsibilization of individuals and the individualization of the food issue, thereby obscuring its structural causes and other dimensions. In their persistence and expansion, these food interventions become part of broader processes of social normalization, revealing a politics of perversion as a central element of the politics of sensibilities in the 21st century. |
