Summary: | The subject of the analysis in this paper is the study of the emergence and
evolution of the phenomenon of Peronism as the most important political
movement and ideology in Argentina and perhaps in Latin America throughout
the 20th century. The basic aim of this paper is to present Peronism as a
political movement and model of development which emerged during the rule of
Juan Domingo Peron in the mid-20th century. This movement continued to exist
and last after Peron’s demission from the political scene. In recent history
Peronism became something more significant than a political movement or a
social development model. Because of that, Peronism can be characterized as
a myth. Nowadays, Perosnism is one of the crucial factors in the
socio-economic and cultural development in Argentina. The focus of research
in this paper is on the presentation and explication of the notions/topics
concerning Peron, his movement and rule. These ones are populism,
presidentialism and personalisation of power. Also, this paper will analyse
the conditions, facts and circumstances under which Peronism emerged and
survived in spite of many critics and disputes in the scientific literature
as well in the Argentinian politics and society. |
