Saturday, December 1, 2001. Argentine banks are closed, as they are every weekend. And that is precisely why the government chooses that day to sign Decree 1570.

The press quickly finds the exact name for it: *corralito*. That wooden playpen where babies are kept so they don't hurt themselves. The word captured it all: the confinement, and the notion that it was for your own good.
Eighteen days later, millions of people would take to the streets banging pots and pans, and a president would leave the Casa Rosada by helicopter.
