Abstract

Peronism is one of the most conflictive issues in Argentina's history, still generating contrary positions and heated debates. It is impossible to ignore Peronism as one of the counterparts of Argentina's political culture and it is essential to understand it to achieve full knowledge of the twentieth century's Argentina. One of the characteristics of Peronism is the integration and mobilization of popular sectors previously absent from the political scene. By broadening the support base, incorporating industrialists or landowners, encouraging mass unionism and re-organizing the State, Peronism becomes a populist movement. The purpose of this paper is to study Juan Peron's first presidency between 1946 and 1952, focusing on the outcome of his economic and social policies implemented in Argentina.
