Juan Domingo Perón Papers 1931-2002

http://www.oac.cdlib.org/ark:/13030/kt22902550

Acquired at intervals between 1958 and 2004, the Juan Domingo Perón papers in the Hoover Institution Archives consist primarily of correspondence between Perón and his followers, conducted largely during the period of his exile in Madrid, Spain. Among the correspondents are many of the major figures of the Peronist movement, including trade union leaders in Argentina and exiled Peronist activists. The letters themselves contain detailed information about rivalries and intrigues among different Peronist factions, and they record the efforts of Perón's lieutenants as they sought both to curry favor in the eyes of their leader and to sustain the Peronist movement within Argentina. They also document the roles played by Isabel Perón and José Lopez Rega in the last years of Juan Perón's life.
