El liderazgo político en democracias de baja institucionalización (el caso del peronismo en la Argentina)
Download
Abstract
Given Peronist weak institutionalization, the paper argues that eronist strength is due to the fact that leadership organizes Peronism as political force, and in the end, such leadership is legitimated by citizen suffrage. To develop this interpretation, the article, first, describes how Perón's charismatic leadership leads and builds Peronist organization; and second, it analyzes how Menem and Kirchner's charismatic leadership of situation guide the recycled Peronist model. Finally, the article tests the tentative hypothesis by demonstrating how Peronist local leadership from Conurbano Bonaerense, the Argentinean most decisive territorial portion in electoral terms, align with Peronist top leadership.
