A 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*
These 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*
This 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. Waisman, University of California, San Diego*
