Justicialist Party

The Justicialist Party, also known as the Peronist Party, is a major political organization in Argentina founded in 1947 by Juan Domingo Perón. It promotes social justice, economic development, and workers’ rights by blending nationalism, populism, and social welfare policies. The party has historically alternated between different political positions, but maintains a core focus on supporting the working class and advocating for state intervention in the economy. As one of Argentina’s dominant parties, it has significantly influenced national politics, shaping policies and leadership for decades.
