Peronism is a political ideology and movement in Argentina, founded by Juan Domingo Perón in the mid-20th century. It emphasizes social justice, labor rights, and the importance of a strong state to support the working class. Peronism combines elements of nationalism, populism, and socialism, aiming to create a more equitable society. The movement has evolved over the years, leading to various interpretations and factions, often referred to as Justicialism. Peronism has had a significant impact on Argentine politics, influencing numerous leaders and policies, and remains a powerful force in the country's political landscape today.
