ABSTRACT
This chapter is a description of the current state of collective practices based on filial love in Argentina. In the Argentinean context, in the first years of this century, it is possible to notice the consolidation of a normalized society in the immediate enjoyment through consumption; this chapter seek to explore filial love practice as a breakdown of this situation. We follow this argumentative strategy: 1. first, the context, voices and experiences are presented; 2. an account of Argentina, between the past and the present through family ties, is offered; and 3. some conclusions are drawn. We point out that there is a set of justifications that endorses the interpretation of the practices of wanting as interstitial practices, as a denial of the summation proposed by the system of truth that nests in the political economy of truth, and as traces of the conflict associated with time-space packages in the structuring processes by the other.
