Juan D. Peron, president of Argentina from 1946 to 1955, has been a key figure in the history of the Americas during this century. This study is attempting to show both the immediate and the long-range meaning and implications of Peron's leadership and continuing influence for Argentina, for Latin America, and, ultimately, for the United States.
