Francisco Perón's Breaches

The story of Maria Eva Duarte de Perón, born María Eva Ibarguren on November 21, 1919, in a small town in Argentina, and known more commonly as Evita, is one that exemplifies an incredible rise from poverty to great influence. Eva Perón never had the kind of authority that was relegated by the country upon her husband, but she had something much more precious: the love of the people. Though she was never President, or even Vice President, Eva utilized her type of power and status to help the poor of Argentina, and was subsequently rewarded, by their wholehearted support. This paper will explore just what kind of authority Eva Perón had, and whether it was greater than that of her husband, as well as whether their leadership curtailed individual rights or whether it was wholly beneficial for all.

My passion for social justice and accountably led me to pursue a career that involves law and public policy. I seek to learn how to analyze social problems and contribute meaningful solutions. As a Ronald E. McNair Scholar, I have begun working on this skill and would like to build on it and one day apply it in the real world. One of my current research projects as an undergraduate student at the University of Washington concerns the United States economic policies towards Argentina during the Dirty War and their impact on Latin America today. I want to know why certain policies were put in place and what those in power hoped to get out of the new laws.

Peron transformed Argentina’s economy, social structure and political culture in ways that continue to shape Argentina to this day. On the other side, Peron’s political actions as well as his legacy cannot be characterized easily, he was a politician who provided for the masses as well as being supported by them while still being in various ways the president of an authoritarian regime. What were both Peron and Castro’s economic goals, and how do they differ from each other?

“From each according to ability, to each according to his contribution”, is socialism’s slogan. Socialism is a social and economic system characterized by common ownership, democratic control, and production for use only. Common ownership means that the resources of the world are owned by everyone thus, nobody can take control of resources beyond their personal belongings. The concept of democratic control means that everybody in a society has the right to participate in the social decisions that affect them. Production under socialism is directly and entirely for use. For example, everyone receives their share of production based on how much they have contributed. After a percent of their share is deducted to go to the common good, workers receive their share of production. Examples of common good is transportation and education, but common good is also used to help those who cannot directly play a part in production like elderly people or children. Socialism works under the assumption that everyone is willing to

However, believers in socialism would completely disagree with this ideal. Socialism is the economic system in which the workers, instead of a rich minority of entrepreneurs, own all industry. Workers receive the full fruits of their labors instead of being given miniscule compensation for backbreaking labor. Since the people are paid well for their work, work becomes a cooperative entity where people come to rely on one another and people actually are more inclined to do their fair share to help the advancement of society as a whole.

In addition, the Argentine economy will collapse every eight or nine years, Jorge was going to retire and none of his sons would like to take over his business. Jorge did not want to undergo major changes but just maintain the current situation due to the all these elements. However, many factors shows that Jorge has opportunities to expand his business globally. What he should do becomes a problem that he has to figure out.

This led the financial system to became worthless and millions of citizens to become poor. In Chile, Pinochet “imposed an economic system that seemed successful at the beginning, although it benefited the capitalists while it maintained the labour force under an iron fist” (Doc 8). In other words, the economy that Pinochet, the non-Communist leader that the U.S. supported, implemented created a huge gap between the very rich owners and the very poor workers. However, under normal circumstances Chile would have been able to create an independent economy that didn’t cause such a division between the upper and lower classes.

The definition of socialism from Merriam-Webster is: “a way of organizing a society in which major industries are owned and controlled by the government rather than by individual people and companies.” Now, socialism isn’t necessary a bad thing; the Netherlands, Finland, Portugal and Denmark have been noted as some of the happiest countries in the world, all falling under a socialist government. Examples of France being a socialist country is: the government has suggested to one hundred companies that they should use anonymous résumés, the president can dissolve the parliament whenever he sees fit and the current President, François Hollande, is a part of the socialist party.

The poverty and hardships of both Argentina and Cuba during the rule of Juan Peron and Fidel Castro was obvious, and both rulers did have positive intentions to improve these problems during their reign. Fidel Castro improved education during his time of power by opening ten thousand new schools and increasing the countries literacy to a majority of ninety-eight percent. In addition to education, Castro provided a universal health care system and decreased infant mortality rate to an impressive 1.1 percent. When the economy of Cuba began to fall, Castro allowed the Cuban refugees to come back into the country to open up businesses in hopes of improving the economy. A quasi free market economy was put in motion by Castro and legalized the use

" 'La Vida por Perón". The crowd of a million and a half shouted these words, not for one minute, but for several" (Fraser and Navarso, 152). 'La vida por Perón' are among many of Eva Perón's last words, before her death on July 26th, 1952, but not among the first words she has used to promote Juan Perón and Perónism in Argentina. Juan Perón is arguably one of the most well-known presidents of Argentina and his movement, the Perónist movement, has played a very important role in Argentina's political history over the late 1940s to the early 1960s, and has inspired many current political parties in Argentina ("Perónist"). Many who identify themselves as Perónistas and commemorate Juan Perón and his political ideologies look up to Evita as well

Juan Domingo Perón is known as the greatest Argentinean politician of all time. However, he is also one of he most controversial. His tactics and alliances are often criticized as are the changes and developments he brought about in Argentina. The one thing that can be concluded by all is that this man led a very complex and important life.

Sin embargo, a raíz de la crisis económica que sufrió Argentina a finales del 2001. Pecom vio reducidas sus posibilidades de seguir creciendo con la misma dimensión en la que venía operando.

It is the economic system used by a government that regulates only certain businesses for the welfare of the citizens. The government normally only regulates housing, education, food, and medical issues. Since that is all the government regulates, private citizens are allowed to own businesses. However, the income of these businesses is controlled thru taxes. The strength of socialism is that the government has more control over businesses and can regulate what happens in them. The weakness is that people interested in owning a business in the area of housing, education, food, or medical issues cannot. All the three economic systems are different in unique ways.

During the 19th century and first half of the 20th century, Argentina was one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Exceptionally, Argentine had abundant resources and relatively equal income distribution. For a time, the peso was one of the strongest currencies in the world and its GDP per capita exceeded the European countries (Falcoff 2000). However, the troubled democracy and the decline of its moderate economy were created under the regime of General Peron (1946-55). When Juan Peron entered the political scene, he began to build political support among urban workers, middle class, and manufacturers. As a result, he won the 1946 elections with a 54% majority. Peron was re-elected with 67% of the vote and created the Peronist Party,

Socialism      Socialism is a type of economic system, a political movement, and a social theory. Socialism is based on the idea that governments should own and control a nation's resources rather than individuals.      Socialism was first used to describe opposition to the free enterprise and market economies. The Industrial Revolution was the cause of many social problems. Long work hours, low pay, and poor working conditions caused Americans to first consider socialism.
