Peronism

Peronism is one of the main social and political movements in contemporary Argentina. It owes its name to its founder Juan Domingo Perón – three-time president of Argentina (1946–1952, 1952–1955, and 1973–1974). Peronism is a national-populist movement related to the first incorporation of laborers into Argentina's political arena. The movement since then has evolved and diversified. The origins, ideology, internal organization, popular culture, and transformations until the present are analyzed here.
