Perón's work in the Labor Department led to an alliance with the socialist and syndicalist movements in the Argentine labor unions. Socialism refers to a broad set of economic theories of social organization advocating state or collective ownership and administration of the Means of production and distribution Syndicalism is a type of movement which aims to degrade capitalist societies through action by the Working class on the industrial front A trade union or labour union is an organization of workers who have banded together to achieve common goals in key areas such as wages hours and working conditions forming This caused his power and influence to increase in the military government[1] . After the coup, socialists from the labor union CGT Nº1, made contact with Colonels Perón and Mercante through the mercantile labor leader Borlenghi and the railroad union lawyer Juan Bramuglia.

Once in office, Perón pursued policies aimed at empowering the working class. He greatly expanded the number of unionized workers, and strengthened the General Confederation of Labour (CGT), created in 1930. The General Confederation of Labour ( Confederación General del Trabajo de la República Argentina, CGT is a national trade union center of Argentina founded He called these policies the "third position", between capitalism and communism. Perón also pushed industrialization hard; in 1947 he announced the first five-year plan to boost newly nationalized industries. Peronism became a major force in Argentine politics, and Perón continued to exert a strong influence after the 1955 military uprising forced him into exile. Peronism (Peronismo or Justicialism (Spanish Justicialismo) is an Argentine political movement based on the ideas and programs associated with The Revolución Libertadora ( Spanish, Liberating Revolution) was a military uprising that ended the second presidential term of

Among upper-class Argentines, improvement of the workers' situation was a source of resentment; industrial workers from rural areas had formerly been treated as servants. It was common for better-off Argentines to refer to these workers using racist slurs like "little black heads" (cabecitas negras, the name of a bird), "greased" (grasas which came from people with grease in their hands/fingernails ie blue-collar), "un-shirted" (descamisados, since they "took off their jackets and/or shirts"). The radical deputy Ernesto Sammartino said that people who vote for Perón were a "zoological flood" (aluvión zoológico). The Radical Civic Union (in Spanish Unión Cívica Radical, UCR) is a Political party in Argentina. [2] In the 1940s upper-class students were the first to oppose Peronist workers, with the slogan: "No to espadrille dictatorship" (No a la dictadura de las alpargatas). Espadrilles are casual flat or high-heel fashion sandals originating from the Pyrenees. A graffito revealing the strong opposition between Peronists and anti-Peronists appeared in upper-class districts in the 1950s, "Long live cancer!" (¡Viva el cáncer!), when Eva Perón was dying of cancer. [3] She died of uterine cancer in 1952 at the age of thirty-three. The term uterine cancer may refer to any of several different types of Cancer which occur in the Uterus, namely Uterine sarcomas [4]

Weiss (2005, p. 45) recalls events in the universities:

"As a young student in Buenos Aires in the early 1950s, I well remember the graffiti found on many an empty wall all over town: "Build the Fatherland. Kill a Student" (Haga patria, mate un estudiante). [Perón] opposed the universities, which questioned his methods and his goals. A well-remembered slogan was, Alpargatas sí, libros no ('peon footwear [=espadrilles] yes, books no'). The words peon and peonage are derived from the Spanish peón (pe'on Universities were [then] 'intervened'. In some, a Peronista mediocrity was appointed rector. Others were closed for years. "

Between 1947 and 1950, Argentina manufactured two advanced jet aircraft called Pulqui I (designed by the Argentine engineers Cardehilac, Morchio and Ricciardi with the French Emile Dewoitine, condemned in France in absentia for Collaborationism), and Pulqui II designed by Kurt Tank. The IAe 27 Pulqui I was an Argentine jet fighter designed at the "Instituto Aerotecnico" (AeroTechnical Institute in 1946 Émile Dewoitine (September 26th 1892 - July 5 1979 was a French aviation industrialist Collaborationism, can describe the Treason of cooperating with enemy Forces occupying one's Country.

Argentina continued testing the Pulqui II until 1959; in the tests, two pilots lost their lives. [5] The Pulqui project opened the door to two successful Argentinian planes: I.A.58"Pucara and the I.A.63'Pampa manufactured at the Aircraft Factory of Córdoba. [6]

In 1951, Perón announced that the Huemul Project would produce nuclear fusion before any other country. The Huemul Project (Proyecto Huemul was a secret project proposed by the German scientist of Austrian origin Ronald Richter to the government of Argentina The project was led by an Austrian, Ronald Richter, who had been recommended by Kurt Tank. Ronald Richter (1909-1991 was an Austrian later Argentine, scientist who became famous in connection with the Huemul Project and the National Atomic Energy Tank expected to power his aircraft with Richter's invention. Perón announced that energy produced by the fusion process would be delivered in milk-bottle sized containers. Richter announced success in 1951, but no proof was given. The next year, Perón appointed a scientific team to investigate Richter's activities. Reports by José Antonio Balseiro and Mario Báncora revealed that the project was a fraud. José Antonio Balseiro (born March 29 1919 in Córdoba - died March 26, 1962 in Bariloche) was an important Argentine After that, the Huemul Project was transferred to the Centro Atómico Bariloche (CAB) of the Argentine National Atomic Energy Commission (CNEA) and to the physics institute of the Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, later named Instituto Balseiro (IB).

Protection of Nazi war criminals

Further information: Ratlines (history)

After World War II, Argentina became a leading haven for Nazi war criminals, with explicit protection from Perón. Ratlines were systems of escape routes for Nazis and other Fascists fleeing Europe at the end of World War II. Uki Goñi showed in his 1998 book that Nazis and French and Belgian collaborationists, including Pierre Daye, organized a meeting in the Casa Rosada with Perón. Writer Uki Goñi is known principally for his work documenting the escape of Nazi war criminals from Europe. During World War II Nazi Germany occupied all or parts of the following countries Poland, Denmark, Norway, Luxembourg, Pierre Daye ( Schaerbeek, 1892 - Buenos Aires, 1960 was a Belgian Collaborationist and follower of Rexism, who exiled himself to Juan Peron La Casa Rosada ( Spanish for "the Pink House" officially known as the Casa de Gobierno ("Government House" or Palacio Presidencial In this meeting, a network was created with support by the Immigration Service and foreign office. The Swiss Chief of Police Heinrich Rothmund [1] and the Croatian Roman Catholic priest Krunoslav Draganović also helped organize the ratline [7]. Krunoslav Draganović (born 30 October 1903, Brčko Monarchy died June 1983 Sarajevo) was a Croatian Roman Catholic priest known as one of Ratlines were systems of escape routes for Nazis and other Fascists fleeing Europe at the end of World War II. According to Goñi, 1948 was the most active year, during which Carlos Fuldner was in Switzerland with a special passport describing him as "special envoy of the President of Argentina. " In 1946, Cardinal Antonio Caggiano went to the Vatican, in the name of the Argentine government, offered refuge for French collaborationists who had fled to Rome [7]. His Eminence Antonio Caggiano ( 30 January 1889 – 23 October 1979) was an Archbishop.

An investigation of 22,000 documents by the DAIA in 1997 discovered that the network was managed by Rodolfo Freude who had an office in the Casa Rosada and was close to Eva Perón's brother, Juan Duarte. DAIA ( Delegacion de Asociaciones Israelitas Argentinas) is the umbrella organization of Argentina 's Jewish community Rodolfo Freude (1922-2003 was a close advisor of Argentine President Juan Perón and served as his Director of the Information Division ( División de Informaciones According to Ronald Newton, Ludwig Freude, Rudolfo's father, was probably the local representative of the Office Three secret service headed by Joachim von Ribbentrop, with probably more influence than the German ambassador Edmund von Thermann. Ulrich Friedrich Wilhelm Joachim von Ribbentrop (30 April 1893 – 16 October 1946 was Foreign Minister of Germany from 1938 until 1945 He had met Perón in the 1930s, and had contacts with Generals Juan Pistarini, Domingo Martínez and Molina. Juan Pistarini (1882-1956 was an Argentine general and politician José Domingo Molina Gómez (1896&ndash1969 was a De facto interim President of Argentina from September 21, 1955 until Ludwig Freude's house became the meetingplace for Nazis and Argentine military officers supporting the Axis. The Axis powers also known as the Axis alliance Axis nations Axis countries or sometimes just the Axis were those Countries In 1943, he went with Perón to Europe to attempt an arms deal with Germany. [8]

Examples of Nazis and collaborators who went to Argentina include Emile Dewoitine, who arrived in May 1946 and worked on the Pulqui jet, Erich Priebke, who arrived in 1947, Josef Mengele in 1949, Adolf Eichmann in 1950, his adjutant Franz Stangl, Austrian representative of Spitzy in Spain, Reinhard Spitzy, Charles Lescat, editor of Je Suis Partout in Vichy France, SS functionary Ludwig Lienhardt, German industrialist Ludwig Freude, SS-HauptsturmführerKlaus Barbie.

Recently, Uki Goñi's research, drawing on investigations in Argentine, Swiss, American, British and Belgian government archives, as well as numerous interviews and other sources, was detailed in The Real Odessa: Smuggling the Nazis to Perón's Argentina (2002), showing how escape routes known as ratlines were used by former NSDAP members and like-minded people to escape trial and judgment. Writer Uki Goñi is known principally for his work documenting the escape of Nazi war criminals from Europe.

Juan Perón and the Jewish and German communities of Argentina

Further information: History of the Jews in Argentina
Further information: Germans in Argentina
When I realized that Perón, contrary to previous governments, gave Jewish citizens access to public office, I began to change my way of thinking about Argentine politics. The history of the Jews of Argentina harks back to the days of the Spanish Inquisition and Portuguese Inquisition when Jews fleeing persecution settled in what . .

Ezequiel Zabotinsky, president of the Jewish-Peronist Organizacion Israelita Argentina, 1952-1955 [11]

Fraser and Navarro write that Juan Perón was a complicated man who over the years stood for many different, often contradictory, things. [12] In the book Inside Argentina from Perón to Menem author Laurence Levine, former president of the US-Argentine Chamber of Commerce, writes, "although anti-Semitism existed in Argentina, Perón's own views and his political associations were not anti-Semitic. A chamber of commerce (also referred to in some circles as a board of trade) is a form of Business network. . . . " Laurence also writes that one of Perón's advisors was a Jewish man from Poland named José Ber Gelbard. José Ber Gelbard (born Radomsko, Poland April 14, 1917; died Washington D [13] U. S. Ambassador George S. Messersmith visited Argentina in 1947 during the first term of Juan Perón. An ambassador is the highest ranking Diplomat who represents their country George S Messersmith was a United States Ambassador to Mexico. Messersmith noted, "There is not as much social discrimination against Jews here as there is right in New York or in most places at home. New York ( is a state in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions of the United States and is the nation's third most populous . . "[14]

Besides Ber Gelbard, Perón sought out the Jewish community for participation in his government. The powerful Secretary of Media, Raúl Apold, was also Jewish, ironically called "Perón´s Goebbels. Raúl Apold was the Propaganda chief for Juan Domingo Peron. As a close associate of Eva Peron, Apold an official with the General Confederation of " He favoured the creation of institutions like New Sion (Nueva Sión), the Argentine-Jewish Institute of Culture and Information, presided by Simón Mirelman, and the Argentine-Israeli Chamber of Commerce. Also, he named Rabbi Amran Blum the first Jewish professor of philosophy in the National University of Buenos Aires. After being the first Latin American government to acknowledge the State of Israel, he sent a Jewish ambassador, Pablo Mangel. Education and Diplomacy were the two strongholds of Catholic nationalism, and both appointments were highly symbolic. The same goes for the 1946 decision of allowing Jewish privates to celebrate their holidays, which was aimed at fostering the Jewish position in another traditionally Catholic institution, the army. Argentina signed a generous commercial agreement with the Jewish state, that granted favourable terms for Israeli acquisitions of Argentine commodities, and also the Eva Perón Foundation sent a huge humanitarian aid.

German Argentines ( German: Deutschargentinier, Spanish: germano argentinos) are Argentines of German descent An Italian Argentine ( Spanish and Italian: italo-argentino) is an Argentine citizen of full or partial Italian ancestry The German Argentine community predates Juan Perón's presidency, going back as far as the time of the unification of Germany. The unification of Germany took place on January 18, 1871, when Prussian Chief Minister Otto von Bismarck managed to unify a number of independent Laurence Levine writes that Perón found German civilization too "rigid" and therefore had a "distaste" for it. [15] Crassweller writes that while Juan Perón's own personal preference was for Hispanic culture, with which he felt a spiritual affinity, Perón was "pragmatic" in dealing with the diverse populace of Argentina. Hispanic (hispano hispánico hispânico Hispānus adjective from ''Hispānia'', the Roman name for the Iberian Peninsula) is a term that historically Pragmatism generally considered to have originated in the late nineteenth century with Charles Peirce, who first stated the Pragmatic maxim. [16]

While Juan Perón's Argentina allowed many Nazi criminals to take refuge in Argentina, Juan Perón's Argentina also accepted more Jewish immigrants than any other country in Latin America, which in part accounts for the fact that Argentina to this day has a population of over 200,000 Jewish citizens, the largest in Latin America, the third largest in the Americas, and the sixth largest in the world. The Americas are the lands of the Western hemisphere or New World, consisting of the Continents of North America and South America [17] [18] [19] [20] The Jewish Virtual Library writes that while Juan Perón had sympathized with the Axis powers, "Perón also expressed sympathy for Jewish rights and established diplomatic relations with Israel in 1949. The Jewish Virtual Library is an online Encyclopedia published by the American-Israeli Cooperative Enterprise (AICE Since then, more than 45,000 Jews have immigrated to Israel from Argentina. " [21] Tomás Eloy Martínez, professor of Latin American studies at Rutgers University, writes that Juan Perón allowed Nazi criminals into the country in hopes of acquiring advanced German technology developed during the war. Tomás Eloy Martínez (born July 16, 1934 in Tucumán) is an Argentine journalist and writer Rutgers The State University of New Jersey (also known as Rutgers University) is the largest institution for higher education in the state of New Jersey Martínez also notes that Juan Perón's wife, Eva Perón, played no part in allowing Nazis into the country. [22]

The second term (1952-1955)

Perón was re-elected in 1951. During his second term, Perón's administration faced serious economic problems. Perón called employers and unions to a Productivity Congress to regulate social conflict through dialogue, but the congress failed and a deal was not made.

Perón signed a contract with an American oil company, Standard Oil of California, in May 1955, starting a policy of economic development with the help of foreign investment. The radical party leader, Arturo Frondizi, considered it to be an anti-patriotic decision, but three years later he himself signed contracts with foreign oil companies. Arturo Frondizi Ercoli ( October 28, 1908 - April 18, 1995) was the President of Argentina between 1 May

On the day of Perón's return, a crowd of left-wing Peronists (estimated at 3. 5 million) gathered at the Ezeiza airport in Buenos Aires to welcome him. Perón was accompanied by Cámpora, whose first measures were to grant amnesty to all political prisoners and reestablish relations with Cuba, helping Castro break the US embargo.

Perón's third term was marked by an escalating conflict between the Peronist left- and right-wing factions. This turmoil was fueled primarily by Perón's growing ties to conservative Radical Party leader Ricardo Balbín, who the opposition, led by Raúl Alfonsín, considered a right-wing radical. Raúl Ricardo Alfonsín Foulkes (born 13 March 1927 in Chascomús) is an Argentine politician who was the President of Argentina The Montoneros became marginalized in the Peronist movement and were mocked by Perón himself after the Ezeiza massacre.
