Peronist views
Peronism is a Third Positionist and populist political ideology that originated in Argentina in 1946, based on the political views of Juan Peron. Peronism stands for social justice, economic independence, and political sovereignty, rejecting both capitalism and communism in favor of corporatism. Because of its Third Position views, the ideology has both left-wing and right-wing factions, with right-wing Peronists under Peron giving aid to Nazi refugees in the aftermath of World War II and the left-wing Peronists waging guerrilla war against the Argentine military dictatorship during the 1970s and 1980s. Peron's own views included non-alignment, anti-imperialism, and social progressive views, and all workers were granted free medical care, were given recreation centers, and were allowed to take vacations at half-price. During the 1990s, the Peronist right wing under Carlos Menem oversaw the privatization of several major businesses and engaged in corruption; afterwards, Nestor Kirchner's left wing of the party took power and implemented social democracy in Argentina. Peronism has no concrete views apart from anti-imperialism, Third Positionism, and populism, allowing for it to be the largest ideology in Argentina.
