Peronist |
Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Wikipedia | 0.02 sec. |
PeronistMember of Argentina's Justicialist Nationalist Movement, a supporter of Juan Perón, or an adherent of his populist and nationalist policies. Perón's poorly defined political philosophy embraced elements of both left- and right-wing ideology, combining a commitment to the redistribution of wealth with authoritarian nationalism and disregard for civil rights. After his death in 1974, the Justicialist movement was weakened by factionalism, but it continued to play an important role in Argentine politics and had adherents elsewhere. See also Carlos Menem.

In Argentina, during the time of conservative governments in the 1930s, the Peronist government of the 1940s and 1950s, the dictatorships of the 1960s and 1970s, and the neo-liberal governments of the 1990s, many of the goals achieved in 1918 suffered dramatic setbacks. Peronist politics, as Naipaul describes it, was a lunatic mixture of populist lies and fantasies. |
