===Proto-Peronism===
[[File:Peron.2.jpg|thumb|Supporters of Perón on 17 October 1945 on the Plaza de Mayo]]
In the late 1930s, [[File:Nacionalismo.png]] [[Nacionalismo|"nacionalistas"]] groups gained strength, some of which were oriented towards the idea of the [[File:Econfash.png]] [[Corporatism#Corporate_Statism|corporative state]] model of European fascism, propagated [[File:Socjust.png]] [[Progressivism#Social_Justice|social justice]] ("''justicia social")'' and found strong approval among the members of the urban industrial proletariat. In the spirit of this political current, which advocated a [[File:3P.png]] [[Fascism|third way]] between [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|capitalism]] and [[File:Soc-h.png]] [[Socialism|socialism]], the nationalist military of the [[File:Nacionalismo.png]] [[Nacionalismo|Grupo de Oficiales Unidos (GOU)]] staged a coup named "Revolution of '43" against the ruling regime of [[File:Conservative.png]] [[Conservatism|Ramón Castillo]]; the last of the de facto presidents of the [[File:Conservative.png]] "''[[w:Infamous Decade|Década Infame]]''" (Infamous Decade). [[File:JuanPeron.png]] [[Peronism|Juan Domingo Perón]], accompanying [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Arturo Rawson]], [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Pedro Ramírez]] and [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Edelmiro Farrell]], participated in this coup as a junior officer.

With the alliance between the socialist and revolutionary union currents (represented by [[File:LeftPeronism.png]] [[Syndicalism|Juan Atilio Bramuglia]] [[File:Synd.png]], [[File:LeftPeronism.png]] [[Syndicalism|Ángel Borlenghi]] [[File:Synd.png]] and [[File:RevSynd.png]] [[Syndicalism|Luis Gay]]) and Perón (together with Colonel [[File:Pron.png]] [[Religious_Nationalism#Christian_Nationalism|Domingo Mercante]]), already established, a profound reform was developed in terms of labor rights, collective labor agreements and social security. Perón would lead the Department of Labor, which would soon be elevated to the Ministry of Labor and Welfare, repealing anti-union decrees and establishing policies to "dignify work". The Peronist welfare state was soon conceived and the unions were strengthened, causing immediate opposition from business sectors and the [[File:Conservative.png]] [[Conservatism|conservative]] wing of the military government that would later condense into [[File:Anti-Peronism.png]] anti-Peronism.
The Argentine economy, that was deeply affected since the Great Depression of 1929, recovered and underwent rapid industrialization through [[File:EconNat.png]] [[Protectionism|import-substitution]], enjoying large internal migrations from the rural interior to the urban periphery. The quality of life grew, and the working class expanded, giving birth to a [[File:ArgNatLab.png]] [[Social Democracy|nationalist-laborist]] current of [[File:Synd.png]] [[Syndicalism|syndicalism]] within the unified [[File:CGT.png]] [[Syndicalism|'Confederación General del Trabajo'"]] (CGT) (General Confederation of Labor) that rejected [[File:Cball-USSR.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|Soviet communism]] and laid the foundations of [[File:Pron.png]] [[Peronism|Peronism]].

In this period, prior to the 1946 elections, the conflict of [[File:Internation.png]] [[Internationalism|Spruille Braden]] [[File:Anti-Peronism.png]] with Perón and [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|Hortensio Quijano]] (candidate for vice president) would be unraveled. 
Braden, as the [[File:Cball-US.png]] United States ambassador in Argentina, developed a great rivalry with Perón that would lead him to be used as the face of [[File:AmericanModel_1.png]] [[American Model|American imperialism]].
===Perón's first term (1946 to 1952)===
The popularity of Perón, who had risen to vice president, was soon perceived as a threat by the most conservative sectors of the military government. [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Edelmiro Farrell]] and [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Eduardo Ávalos]] forced him to resign and he and [[File:Evita.png]] [[Feminism|Eva Perón]], his wife, were finally arrested in 1945 in the Martín García Island. On October 17 of the same year (a date considered the birth of Peronism and also know as the "''Día de la Lealtad''", or Day of Loyalty), he returned to office under massive pressure from his followers, whom initiated spontaneous strikes and mass rallies in his support. At this insistance, democratic elections were held in February 1946, in which Perón, as a candidate of the [[File:ArgNatLab.png]] [[National Syndicalism|"''Partido Laborista''"]] (Labourist Party, led by [[File:RevSynd.png]] [[Syndicalism|Luis Gay]]), was elected president by a large majority. After the elections, the Labourist Party would be dissolved and Peronism would be divided into the [[File:Pron.png]] [[Nationalism|Peronist Party]], the [[File:FemPron.png]] [[Feminism|Female Peronist Party]] (led by Eva Perón) and the [[File:SyndPron.png]] [[Syndicalism|syndicalist Peronism]] concentrated in the CGT; thus beginning the first of Peron's terms. 

Through the establishment of a comprehensive welfare state and social reforms that contributed to achieving high social and economic indicators – condensed in the [[File:Industrial.png]] [[Industrialism|''Primer Plan Quinquenal'']] (First Five-Year Plan), an industrialist [[File:Dirigisme.png]] [[State Capitalism|state-planning program]] that sought to guarantee the economic independence of Argentina –, Perón secured broad popular support, ensuring that the remuneration of labor exceeded that of capital and increasing the presence of union delegates in the workplace. This period would be headed by the "Wizard of Peronist finance" [[File:MiguelMiranda.png]] [[Industrialism|Miguel Miranda]], that implemented policies such as the nationalization of the [[File:Central_bank.png]] [[Financialism|Central Bank]] and the creation of public companies, [[File:Tariff.png]] [[Protectionism|import tariffs]], the founding of the [[File:EconStat.png]] [[State Capitalism|IAPI]] (Argentina Institute for Promotion of Exchange) as a state monopoly of foreign trade to strengthen the industry with resources from the agricultural sector, and a general increase in wages and public employment, to achieve full employment and promote domestic industry. This policy plan would result in a modest growth in industrial GDP.

Then, as a consequence of the growth of the Peronist movement and union demands, a [[File:Constitution.png]] [[Constitutionalism|Constitutional Reform]] would be carried out to modernize the Argentine Constitution and incorporate [[File:HumanRights.png]] second-generation human rights [[File:Synd.png]]), also describing the [[File:Soccap.png]] [[Social Capitalism|social function of private property]] (subject to the common good) and [[File:Regulationism.png]] [[Regulationism|economic interventionism]] as fundamental. 

The economic and social prosperity experimented at the moment, however, began to wane in the wake of a phase of economic weakness initiated in 1949 and continued in the begginings of the 50's, with the ending of the postwar trade surplus. Faced with this productive slowdown, Perón attempted to reapproach to the [[File:Cball-US.png]] [[American Model|United States]] and modified his economic plan to reverse the high fiscal deficit (largely as a result of growing public spending and monetary emission) and stagnation. At the end of 1951, with a drought and a drop in agricultural prices,  a more orthodox economic team formed by [[File:ModFiscon.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism|Alfredo Gómez Morales]] and [[File:ChristDemHum.png]] [[Christian Democracy|Antonio Cafiero]] set out to rethink its strategies to face the inevitable crisis that was brewing to explode around 1952 – one that until that moment had hit the country with an enormous decline in real wages and record inflation –. Then, Perón brought forward the elections from 1952 to November 1951, achieving re-election by a landside with [[File:Evita.png]] [[Feminism|Eva Perón]] as vice president (thanks to the support of [[File:SyndPron.png]] [[Syndicalism|syndicates]]) and beginning his second term on June 1952, with a high tension between [[File:Pron.png]] peronists and [[File:Anti-Peronism.png]] anti-peronists. Before taking office, Perón announces to the country the [[File:Fiscon.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism|"''Plan de Emergencia Económica''"]] (Emergency Economic Plan), a mixed austerity plan that incorporated [[File:Neoclassical.png]] [[Chicago School|orthodox-liberal]] economic measures with [[File:SyndieSam.png]] [[Syndicalism|syndicalist]] ones.
===Perón's second term (1952-1955)===
In 1952, the plan is put into action and there is a sharp narrowing in public spending, reducing mainly the public works sector. Attached to this, and consequently, the fiscal deficit is considerably decreased; state loans are limited and, as part of his strategy, Perón agrees to an increase in wages and freezes them for two years, promoting saving and production among workers and discouraging consumption. Private investment is also fomented and foreign capital is attracted, allowing the establishment of multinational companies. This would be the same year in which [[File:Evita.png]] [[Feminism|Evita]] would die, on July 26. 

In 1953, the measures of the "''Plan de Emergencia Económica''" were expanded and formalized with the [[File:Industrial.png]] [[Industrialism|"''Segundo Plan Quinquenal''"]] (Second Five-Year Plan), which maintained the orthodox measures but accompanied them with some [[File:RegCap.png]] [[Regulationism|interventionist]] ones, such as a price agreement, a tenacious opposition to speculators and government incentives for the development of the agricultural sector. The stabilization plan began to bear fruit and objectives such as lowering inflation were quickly achieved.

Real wages, however, never increased, and multiple sectors of the economy were affected, earning Perón multiple labor strikes and an increasingly strained relationship with the [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|militar opposition]], which responded violently to the disappearances of oppositors of the government and the devotion that began to take shape around the figure of Perón and his wife, which used to be manifestated through acts commonly denoted as [[File:Cultofpersonality.png]] [[Cultism#Cult_of_Personality|"social indoctrination techniques"]]. These signs of wanting to "Peronize" society (forcing public employees to join the PJ, establishing the reading of books such as La razón de mi vida as mandatory in schools and provincializing la Pampa and Chaco as "Provincia Eva Perón" and "Provincia Presidente Perón", etc) would lead to terrorist acts by [[File:Anti-Peronism.png]] anti-Peronists such as the Plaza de Mayo Attack on April 15, 1953; to which Peronist civil groups would respond by burning the headquarters of opposition political parties.

One of the most notable events during this period would also be Perón's break with [[File:Catheo.png]] [[Catholic Theocracy|Catholicism]] and the separation of church and state, adopting the law of divorce and the [[File:Secular.png]] [[Secularism|secularization of schools]] in 1954.
===Overthrow, Peronist Resistance (1955-1973) and split in the movement===
[[File:Peron.3.jpg|thumb|Violent protests by left-wing, Peronist students in Rosario in 1969 against the banning of the PJ.]]
Finally, in 1955, the civic-military dictatorship self-proclaimed [[File:StratoDictature-Antifurry.png]] [[Stratocracy|"''Revolución Libertadora''"]] (Liberating Revolution), headed by generals [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Eduardo Lonardi]] and [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Pedro Aramburu]], overthrew Perón on September 16, 1955; after a failed attempt on June 16, 1955, where a group of designated soldiers bombed the Casa Rosada and the Plaza de Mayo in hopes of killing Perón, killing 308 civilians in the attempt. This cicle is marked by a policy of [[File:Anti-Peronism.png]] "de-peronization" of society attached to events such as the kidnapping of Evita's corpse and the proscription of Peronism in Lonardi's government; in addition to the ''Levantamiento de Valle'' (Valle's uprising) (failed uprising of the [[File:Pron.png]] [[Nationalism|General Juan José Valle]] against Aramburu's dictatorship) that would lead to the ''Fusilamientos de José León Suárez'' (Executions of José León Suárez) – in which Valle himself and several civilians would be killed) – and the dictatorship to be called "''Revolución Fusiladora''" (Executing Revolution).

In the following years, after Perón fled into exile and the Revolución Libertadora ended in 1958; the presidency rotated between [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|radicals]] and [[File:StratoDictature.png]] [[Stratocracy|military dictators]]. [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|Arturo Frondizi]] was the first of them, and he had a broad confrontation with the Peronist sectors. Even so, he allowed the participation of the Neoperonist party [[File:Neo-Peron.png]] [[Christian Democracy|"''Unión Popular''"]] (Popular Union) in the 1962 elections to renew half of the deputies and elect provincial governors, in which Peronism emerged triumphant in several of the provinces. [[File:SyndPron.png]] [[Syndicalism|Andrés Framini]] would be the new governor of Buenos Aires, and although Frondizi annulled the election, this caused the military forces to carry out a coup on March 29 of the same year, putting the civilian [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|José María Guido]] in office under the "''ley de acefalía''" (law of succession). Guido, with military pressure, put the Congress in reccess and called for elections in 1963, in which [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|Arturo Umberto Illia]], for the [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|"''Unión Cívica Radical del Pueblo''"]] (Radical Civic Union of the People), was elected president. Illia removed the ban on the PJ, but he did not allow Perón to return to the country. 

In June 26, given the weakness of Illia's government, the military finally intervened in a process known as the [[File:StratoOligarchy.png]] [[Stratocracy#Military_Junta|"''Revolución Argentina''"]] (Argentine Revolution); protagonized by Generals [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Juan Onganía]], [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Roberto Levingston]] and [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Alejandro Lanusse]]. In this period of time, from 1955 to 1973 (Cámpora's presidency), the "Peronist Resistance" was initiated, a period in which autonomous unions, neighborhood and student organizations, among others, opposed and resisted dictatorships and civil governments that followed the departure of Perón. Attached to this uprising, [[File:Neo-Peron.png]] Neo-Peronism arose, as a tendency that defended Peronist ideas against the ban of the movement, with its highest fronts being the [[File:Neo-Peron.png]] [[Christian Democracy|"''Unión Popular Federal''"]] (Federal Popular Union) and the refounded [[File:Neo-Peron.png]] [[National Syndicalism|Partido Laborista]] (Labourist Party). In response to the acts of oppression of the civic-military dictatorships and from constitutional government (such as the one of Frondizi and Guido), the different branches of Peronism responded from clandestinity using various tactics, ranging from the boycott of public and private companies, attempts at political participation (the aforementioned Neo-Peronist parties, for example) to even acts of [[File:NatTerrorist.png]] {{PCBA|Terrorism|terrorism}}.

A new generation of syndicalist leaders would also emerge, the most prominent of them being [[File:Azopardo.png]] [[Syndicalism|Augusto Vandor]] (general secretary of the [[File:SyndieSamCon.png]] [[Syndicalism|Metallurgical Worker Union]]), who would carry out his own movement (Vandorism) within the Neoperonist current, defending a "Peronism without Perón" that would soon be perceived as a threat by the most [[File:OrthSyndPron.png]] [[National Syndicalism|orthodox]] sectors of Peronist syndicalism and by Perón himself. With Vandor killed in 1969, [[File:OrthSyndPron.png]] [[Syndicalism|José Ignacio Rucci]] and [[File:OrthSyndPron.png]] [[Syndicalism|Lorenzo Miguel]] (backed by Perón) would continue his legacy, but within the orthodoxy and seeking to unify the [[File:CGT.png]] [[Syndicalism|CGT]] before the arrival of Perón.
===Perón's third term===
After the military regime of the "''Revolución Argentina''" failed to get control over the country's economic problems and faced the civil uprisings of the Cordobazo (1969) and the Viborazo (1971), democratic elections were held in 1973. The military was unable to keep the PJ away from the government and reluctantly allowed it to participate, but without Perón's presence. [[File:TioCampora.png]] [[Social Democracy#Left-Social_Democracy|Héctor José Cámpora]] ran as the presidential candidate of Peronism, in an electoral alliance called the [[File:Syncretic.png]] [[Nationalism|"''Frente Justicialista de Liberación''"]] (FREJULI), an {{PCBA|Anti-Imperialism|anti-imperialist}} gathering of [[File:Conservative.png]] [[Conservatism|conservative]], [[File:Cdem.png]] [[Christian Democracy|christian democrat]], [[File:Soc-h.png]] [[Socialism|socialist]], [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|radical]] and [[File:Pron.png]] Peronist parties, with the latter being the majority. He won the elections and began his short presidential term, known as the "''Primavera Camporista''" (Camporist Spring), distinguished for the policies of [[File:Soccorp.png]] [[Corporatism#Social_Corporatism|social agreements]] between the government, unions and employers (Social Pact), the adoption of a [[File:NAM.png]] non-alignment position in the Cold War and Cámpora's [[File:Prog-u.png]] [[Progressivism|progressive]] visions. Cámpora quickly removed the ban on Perón so that he would settle permanently in Argentina and participate in the elections on September of the same year, after Cámpora and his vice president, [[File:Patcon.png]] [[Paternalistic Conservatism|Vicente Solano Lima]] resigned from their charges. In this short period of time, [[File:RaulLastiri.png]] {{PCBA|Authoritarian Pacifism|Raúl Alberto Lastiri}} temporarily held the position of president as an interim before the elections and immediately outlawed the [[File:LeftTerrorist.png]] {{PCBA|Terrorism|ERP (''Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo'')}} (People's Revolutionary Army).

When Perón arrived to the country, the tense relations between the [[File:OrthPeron.png]] [[Fascism|orthodox Peronists]] and the [[File:Montoneros.png]] [[Left-Wing Nationalism|"''Tendencia Revolucionaria''"]] (Revolutionary Tendency) led to the "''Masacre de Ezeiza''" (Ezeiza Massacre), a mass murder occurred at the Ezeiza Airport, where both sectors of Peronism gathered to receive their leader. Supporters of [[File:LeftPeronism.png]] revolutionary Peronism were then shot by members of the [[File:Jingoism.png]] [[Jingoism|"''Comando de Organización de la Juventud Peronista''"]] (CdO) (Peronist Youth Organization Command); an insurrectionary Peronist organization that rejected both the center-left and center-right factions of Peronism. Perón then ran for president with his wife, [[File:Isabelita.png]] [[Kakistocracy|Isabel Perón]], under the FREJULI, and won by wide difference. With the unstable panorama of Peronism and the murder of Rucci, Perón decided to return to his [[File:Trad.png]] [[Traditionalism|traditionalist]] and orthodox roots, attacking [[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism|Marxism]] and seeking its total elimination from the movement. He proposed an [[File:Indust.png]] [[Industrialism|industrialist]] policy commanded by [[File:ModerateML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|José Gelbard]] [[File:Champagne_Socialism.png]] (who had already been Minister of Economy of Cámpora and Lastiri), kept the [[File:Soccorp.png]] [[Corporatism#Corporate_Statism|Social Pact]] and reaffirmed [[File:NAM.png]] a non-aligned international position in favor of Third World integration. He also approved the operations of the [[File:ArgentineAnticommunistAlliance.png]] {{PCBA|Anti-Communism|"''Alianza Anticomunista Argentina''" (Triple A)}} (Argentine Anti-Communist Alliance), which was in charge of persecuting militants of [[File:LeftPeronism.png]] [[Left-Wing Nationalism|revolutionary Peronism]] and was led by [[File:ArgentineAnticommunistAlliance.png]] [[Esoteric Fascism|José López Rega]] and [[File:ArgentineAnticommunistAlliance.png]] {{PCBA|Anti-Communism|Alberto Villar}}. 

Gelbard saw initial success within the framework of the Social Pact: he diversified the foreign market and achieved the largest trade surplus in Argentinian history, in addition to achieving (virtually) full employment. However, when international inflation unbalanced the fixed prices, a "great national joint meeting" was called to update prices and a [[File:AuthCorp.png]] [[Corporatocracy|corporate black market]] began to emerge due to the hoarding of goods from the business sector. Furthermore, the gigantic fiscal deficit and the artificially low exchange rate caused the loss of international reserves.

The Navarrazo, endorsed by Perón, would then occur in February 1974, with the province of Córdoba being intervened, and [[File:LeftPeronism.png]] [[Left-Wing Nationalism|Ricardo Obregón Cano]] (moderately affiliated with the left-wing of Peronism that threatened the idea of a centralized syndicalism) and [[File:SyndPron.png]] [[Syndicalism|Atilio López]] removed from power in a police coup led by [[File:PolState.png]] [[Police Statism|Antonio Domingo Navarro]] (former chief of the Córdoba police). This would increase tensions between the Perón government (aligned with [[File:OrthPeron.png]] [[Fascism|orthodoxy]]) and the sectors of revolutionary Peronism ([[File:Montoneros.png]] [[Left-Wing Nationalism|la Tendencia]], mainly Montoneros), causing a rupture that would be formalized on May 1, 1974. Perón, giving a speech on the occasion of the International Workers' Day, would respond bluntly to the chants of la Tendencia, who would decide to withdraw from the popular demonstration, being indirectly expulsed. Thanks to this, the process of integrating the [[File:JP.png]] [[Peronism|''Juventud Peronista'']] (JP) (Peronist Youth) as the fourth branch of the Peronist movement would be abandoned, getting that status later.

Perón finally died in July 1, 1974, and Perón's wife, [[File:Isabelita.png]] [[Kakistocracy|Isabel Perón]] (previously vice president), took over the presidency with a deteriorated economic situation and rising inflation. She, advised by López Rega and [[File:Argentiniantorturer.png]] [[Stratocracy|Emilio Massera]], carried out an orthodox economic plan after dismissing Gelbard as minister and favored the persecution of leftist university students through parapolice groups. [[File:Ultramil.png]] [[Stratocracy|Operation Independence]] of 1975 would stand out among these state-terrorist actions, being the first major operation of the [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Dirty War]] that began in 1974; this confrontation would occur in Tucumán between the [[File:StratoHelm.png]] [[Stratocracy|military]] and the [[File:LeftTerrorist.png]] {{PCBA|Terrorism#Left-Wing_Terrorism|ERP}} guerrilla, constituting the first decree of annihilation.

In her presidency there were a total of 5 Ministers of Economy after Gelbard: [[File:ModFiscon.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism|Alfredo Gómez Morales]], [[File:Fiscon.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism|Celestino Rodrigo]], [[File:PatFisCon.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism|Pedro José Bonanni]], [[File:ChristDemHum.png]] [[Christian Democracy|Antonio Cafiero]] [[File:Econprag.png]] and [[File:$con.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism|Emilio Mondelli]]. The most relevant of them, Rodrigo, would be the material author of the [[File:DeficitHawk.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism|Rodrigazo]]: a program of economic shock, devaluation of the peso and [[File:Tax.png]] tax increase to the workers that triggered inflation, produced shortages and provoked an immediate reaction from the [[File:CGT.png]] [[Syndicalism|CGT]], which would conduct its first strike towards a Peronist government. Rodrigo and López Rega subsequently resigned from their positions, leaving a crisis that their successors were unable to reverse.

Between September 13 and October 16, 1975, absenting for health reasons, Isabelita designated [[File:ItaloLuder.png]] [[Moderatism|Ítalo Luder]], provisional president of the senate, to exercise executive power. Luder would sign three more decrees of annihilation and would begin a process of [[File:Mil.png]] [[Stratocracy|militarization]] of Argentina, maintaining a notable condescension with the military sector to fight against "subversion" (how the [[File:LeftTerrorist.png]] {{PCBA|Terrorism#Left-Wing_Terrorism|left-wing guerrillas}} and other revolutionary sectors were called). The idea of an institutional coup would be frustrated with the return of Isabelita to the presidency, who would firmly reject the possibility of resigning and leaving Luder as her successor. 

In a panorama of destabilization and an increase in guerrilla activity, the military coup self-proclaimed [[File:NationalReorganizationProcess.png]] [[Stratocracy|"''Proceso de Reorganización Nacional''"]] (National Reorganization Process) was executed in 1976 and [[File:Isabelita.png]] [[Kakistocracy|Isabel Perón]] was arrested.
===Military dictatorship 1976 to 1983===
With the establishment of the [[File:NationalReorganizationProcess.png]] [[Stratocracy|National Reorganization Process]] – as part of the [[File:OperationCondor.png]] [[Authoritarian Capitalism#Operation Condor|Operation Condor]] – , originally led by [[File:Videla.png]] [[National Capitalism|Jorge Rafael Videla]], [[File:Argentiniantorturer.png]] [[Stratocracy|Emilio Massera]] and [[File:Argentiniantorturer.png]] [[Stratocracy|Orlando Agosti]]; the dictatorship began to effect a state-terrorist scheme against people of "subversive" ideals (including [[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism|Marxists]], [[File:Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy|social democrats]], [[File:Synd.png]] [[Syndicalism|syndicalists]], [[File:LeftPeronism.png]] [[Left-Wing Nationalism|revolutionary Peronists]], etc), unleashing imprisonment, disappearances, torture, murder and kidnapping of children. After the dissolution of the single [[File:SyndPron.png]] [[Syndicalism|CGT]] and the reorganization of syndicalism, a fairly divided Peronism opposed to dictatorship (represented by the [[File:RevSynd.png]] [[Syndicalism|CGT-Brasil]] of [[File:SyndieSam.png]] [[Syndicalism|Saúl Ubaldini]]) then resisted through [[File:SyndieSam.png]] [[Syndicalism|trade unionism]] and [[File:HumanRights.png]] human rights organizations, while the [[File:Azopardo.png]] [[Syndicalism|''Azopardo'']] branch of the CGT took a "dialoguist" position with the dictatorship.

Although at first both [[File:CGT.png]] [[Syndicalism|CGT]] supported the [[File:Cball-Falklands.png]] Falklands War, in the disbandment of the dictatorship after the defeat, they joined in a general strike backed by the [[File:Dem.png]] [[Democracy|"''multipartidaria''"]] (multiparty, coordinated political action of the [[File:Pron.png]] [[Peronism|PJ]], [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|UCR]], [[File:Revdemsoc.png]] [[Democratic Socialism|PI]] <ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intransigent_Party</ref>, [[File:Cdem.png]] [[Christian Democracy|PDC]] <ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Democratic_Party_(Argentina)</ref> and [[File:EconNat.png]] [[Protectionism|MID]]<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_and_Development_Movement</ref>) demanding democratic elections and precipitating the fall of the civic-military dictatorship.
===Role in the democratization of Argentina after 1983===
[[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Reynaldo Bignone]], the last of the military dictators of Argentina, was forced to begin a democratic transition and prepare the 1983 elections, where the two national traditional political forces faced each other: [[File:Pron.png]] [[Nationalism|Peronism]] (PJ), under [[File:ItaloLuder.png]] [[Moderatism|Ítalo Luder]] and [[File:Cdem.png]] [[Christian Democracy|Deolindo Bittel]] (both ensured by the [[File:OrthPeron.png]] [[Fascism|Orthodox]]), and [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|radicalism]] (UCR), under [[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|Raúl Alfonsín]].

[[File:Argrad.png]] [[Radicalism|Raúl Alfonsín]] ended up winning the election, supported by the bad image that [[File:Isabelita.png]] [[Kakistocracy|Isabel Perón]] had left in the PJ due to her authoritarian behavior. Peronism was forced to take a new direction for the elections of 1989, that would develop in an internal process known as the "Peronist Renovation": headed by [[File:Menem.png]] [[Conservative Liberalism|Carlos Menem]] (with a [[File:Fed.png]] [[Federalism|federalist]] focus), [[File:Pron.png]] [[Christian Democracy|Antonio Cafiero]] (with a [[File:Prog-u.png]] [[Progressivism|"modernizer"]] focus) and [[file:Pron.png]] [[Christian_Democracy#Christian_Social_Democracy|Carlos Grosso]] (with a more [[File:ChristSocdem.png]] [[Christian_Democracy#Christian_Social_Democracy|"social christian" focus]]) in the PJ, with the aim of guiding the party under the democratic ideals that Alfonsín espoused in his campaign and displacing the [[File:OrthPeron.png]] [[Fascism|orthodox Peronists]] and the members of [[File:Montoneros.png]] [[Left-Wing Nationalism|la Tendencia]] from their power in the movement and in the trade unions.
