This book explores the university reform led by the left-wing Peronists in Argentina during 1973 and 1974. It focuses on the efforts of Rodolfo Puiggrós, a Marxist and Peronist historian, who aimed to transform the University of Buenos Aires into a popular and national institution serving the people and national liberation. The book delves into the political and institutional projects of the era, examining the internal disputes within Peronism and the influence of leftist intellectuals. It provides insight into the broader socio-political context of Argentina in the 1960s and 1970s, including youth movements and the peronization of middle sectors. The intended audience includes scholars and students of Argentine history, political science, and university reform.

"The medusa, the monkey and the puppet studies the discursive genealogy of Peronism through the meticulous reading of texts by Eva Perón, Borges, Cortázar, Walsh, Erminda Duarte, Pedro Ara, Copi and T.E. Martinez. By unifying three theoretical components - the political, the sacred, and the erotic - based on Carl Schmitt's political theology, Freud's metapsychology, and Rene Girard's ideas about violence and the sacred, the book exposes the contingent articulations of Peronism in controversy with its political adversary, Liberalism. The analysis introduces several original concepts, such as political teratology, 'imputrefiction' and prosthetic sovereignty, which illuminate long-standing discussions about national culture, the necrophilic tendency, or the obsession with Evita's embalmed body by revealing condensation libidinal of political identity in the sovereign body or corpse, site of sacrifice, pain and fetishism"--

Political movements founded by charismatic leaders are often considered ephemeral. Existing literature argues that because they rest on unmediated, emotional attachments between leaders and followers, these movements either fade quickly after their leaders disappear or transform into routinized parties. Yet, charismatic movements around the world have proven surprisingly resilient and have retained their personalistic core. Focusing on Argentine Peronism and Venezuelan Chavismo, this book investigates the nature and trajectory of charismatic movements from the perspectives of both leaders and followers. Using interviews, focus groups, and survey experiments, Caitlin Andrews-Lee reveals that charismatic movements can emerge, survive, and become politically revived by sustaining - not discarding - their personalistic character. Followers' charismatic attachments to the movement founder can develop into an enduring, deeply affective political identity that successors can reactivate under certain conditions by portraying themselves as symbolic reincarnations of the founder. Consequently, charismatic movements can have lasting, deleterious effects on democracy.
