This volume clarifies many misconceptions about the nature of Peronism and explains how it has influenced Argentine politics and civil society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA valuable teaching resource. This collection of essays presents fresh interpretations and research on the political movement that has dominated Argentine history in the last half-century. James Brennan has done a very effective job in grouping these articles around three central problematics: the intellectual debate surrounding peronismo as a social and political phenomenon; peronismo and the making of the Argentine society since the early 1940s; and, finally, peronismo's recent transformations under the neoliberal agenda of menemismo. -- Diego Armus, Kean University\u003cbr\u003eThese eight essays connect the Peronism of yesterday and the Peronsim of today, highlighting what has changed a lot and what has changed a little in Argentina in the second half of the twentieth century. -- Herbert Braun, University of Virginia\u003cbr\u003eThis volume is the best and most complete discussion in any language of the evolution of Peronism, a little-known and yet very important ideology and political movement. The significance of Peronism transcends the case of Argentina, a country it reshaped two times in this century, for its incarnations represent possible models for some of the new democracies in different parts of the world. -- Carlos H.
