In this episode of War 2 War, we explore the rise of Peronism in post\u2013World War II Argentina and how Per\u00f3n tried to position his country between the superpowers of the Cold War.<\/p>\n<p>Through labour reforms, nationalist rhetoric, media control, and brutal repression of dissent, Juan and Eva Per\u00f3n created a powerful populist regime that borrowed ideas from both fascism and socialism, while claiming to reject both. From Argentina&#8217;s &#8220;Third Way&#8221; to its complicated ties with the US, USSR, and even Nazi fugitives, we examine the ideology, contradictions, and legacy of Peronist rule.<\/p>\n<p>Was Peronism a unique form of authoritarian populism, or just another face of fascism?<\/p>\n<p>Join us as we uncover the foundations of Argentina&#8217;s Cold War identity and the true political nature of Juan Per\u00f3n.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Join us on Patreon: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/TimeGhostHistory\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/TimeGhostHistory<\/a><br \/>\nOr join The TimeGhost Army directly at: <a href=\"https:\/\/timeghost.tv\/signup\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/timeghost.tv<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Follow WW2 day by day on Instagram @ww2_day_by_day &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ww2_day_by_day\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ww2_day_by_day<\/a><br \/>\nFollow Timeghost History on Instagram &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/timeghosthistory\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/timeghosthistory<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source list: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/WW2sources\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/WW2sources<\/a><br \/>\nArchive footage: Screenocean\/Reuters &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.screenocean.com\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.screenocean.com<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Hosted by: Sebastian Brandstetter<br \/>\nDirector: Astrid Deinhard<br \/>\nProducers: Astrid Deinhard and Spartacus Olsson<br \/>\nExecutive Producers: Astrid Deinhard, Indy Neidell, Spartacus Olsson<br \/>\nCo-produced by: Sebastian Brandstetter<br \/>\nCreative Director: Iryna Dulka<br \/>\nCommunity Management: Anna Deinhard &#038; Tom Aldis<br \/>\nWritten by: Jesse Karami and Sebastian Brandstetter<br \/>\nResearch by: Jesse Karami<br \/>\nEdited by: Iryna Dulka<br \/>\nSound design by: Marek Kami\u0144ski<br \/>\nColorizations by: Carlos Ortega Pereira, BlauColorizations<\/p>\n<p>Image sources:<br \/>\nTelevisi\u00f3n P\u00fablica Argentina.
