Resistance and Integration : Peronism and the Argentine Working Class, 1946-1976 (Cambridge Latin American Studies)

Rating:
Summary: Blurring the line between Unions and the National State
Review: Peronism managed to control the Union movement in Argentina. Working from the national state, Perón moved to legalize long-sought rights of Argentine workers (like paid yearly vacations). He also took the time to crush or isolate any dissent with him within the Union movement. And guaranteed to the Union "bosses" some privileges (like having only one Union legalized for each kind of workers).

The book tells the story.
