Peronism: Difference between revisions

*[[File:SyndPron.png]] 62 Organizations: opposed to the dictatorship, of Peronist ideals and initially with communist members (who would later separate).

*[[File:Anti-Peronism.png]] 32 Democratic Guilds: of anti-Peronist and independent ideals, with radical and socialist members.

The regional CGT of Córdoba, which at that time was the only one over which its workers had control, would organize the historic "''Programa de La Falda''" (Program of La Falda) in 1957, where they would define the [[File:SyndieSam.png]] [[Syndicalism|labor movement]] as favorable towards the [[File:Antiimp.png]] {{PCBA|Anti-Imperialism|anti-imperialist}} ideas of the national liberation movements (aligned with the [[File:NAM.png]] NAM and the Third World) and as supporter of a [[File:PlannedEconomy.png]] [[State Socialism|planned state economy]] with strong participation of unions. As a result of this, a new generation of Peronist syndicalist leaders would emerge, among whom were included: Augusto Vandor (UOM), Andrés Framini (AOT), Amado Olmos (health) and Atilio López (urban collective transport).

The national Peronist union movement, contained in the 62 Organizations, would be affected by another internal breakdown with Perón in exile:

*Orthodox (called "authentic" in Córdoba): in favor of an internal vertical association (movement conducted by a leader), traditionalist and intransigent that responds directly to Perón's ideas, rejecting dialogue with other syndicalist currents. Represented by the 62 standing with Perón and supported by Perón himself during his exile. Led by José Alonso.

*Legalists: opposed to orthodox verticalism, moderate and pragmatic, in favor of dialogue with other syndicalist currents and an institutional (legal) syndicalism independent of Perón. Represented by the "Loyal to Perón"/62 Vandorists and with an internal distinction between the democratic legalists and the Vandorists (collaborationists, participacionists and "dialogists" with the dictatorship, in favor of a Peronism without Perón with Vandor as leader). Led by Augusto Vandor.

By 1963, after the political system collapsed with a coup against Frondizi, who had applied the CONINTES (Internal State Commotion) plan to justify a repressive regime against unionism and also defend himself from certain left-wing guerrillas , the CGT would be normalized under Illia's presidency. He, however, would maintain a conflictive position with syndicalism, and when he was overthrown in 1966, the dictatorship of the "Argentine Revolution" would receive support from both factions of the national CGT (which the CGT Córdoba would oppose), until another internal discord would occur, grouping Peronist syndicalism into two main factions:

*CGT-Azopardo: pro-dictatorship (participationism and collaborationism with the military government), composed of Vandorists, orthodox Alonsists (from José Alonso) and legalists of Córdoba.

*CGT of the Argentines: anti-dictatorship (in favor of social justice, popular sovereignty and national unity, rejecting any type of negotiation or cooperation with the dictatorship), composed of independent Ongarists (from Raimundo Ongaro) and orthodox/authentic of Córdoba, in addition to well-known artists such as Rodolfo Walsh.

Between 1969 and 1971, the Cordobazo and the Viborazo occurred, and Vandor was also murdered in the so-called "Operation Judas." The idea of ​​a "Peronism without Perón" would then be discarded, but collaborationist practices would persist within the Peronist syndicalist orthodoxy (mainly thanks to Rogelio Coria) and the 62 Organizations would be unified under the leadership of José Ignacio Rucci; with Lorenzo Miguel remaining in charge of the UOM. The tensions between the different factions of the CGT Córdoba would not cease, however.

Legalists and independents (not-peronists leftists) would finally reach an agreement to which the orthodox would not adhere, withdrawing to approach the national Peronist syndicalism and leaving the CGT Córdoba in the hands of legalist pluralism and independent "''combativismo''" ("combativism"). Rucci and Miguel would then ally themselves with the orthodox in the hope of unifying all the workers' confederations into a single CGT, counting on the adhesion of the workers of the dissolved Sitrac-Sitram ("clasistas" or "classist" unions of Córdoba, of the revolutionary left, opposed to the dictatorship and from the Concord and Materfer companies).

Rucci would be assassinated by Montoneros in 1973 in what would be called "Operation Traviata", and with Perón in his third presidency, the government would persecute combative and revolutionary unionism. Perón would reform the union laws to establish a central, vertical and unified unionism while the conflict between orthodox and legalists persisted, which would lead to a campaign of terror by the Peronist right (mainly the Triple A) and finally in the Navarrazo. With the other syndicalist currents persecuted, the orthodox would gain control of the CGT until Perón's death in 1974, when Isabelita would take over and discard the union policy of the Social Pact to implement the Rodrigazo. Syndicalist Peronism would respond with multiple strikes, the situation calming down only with the appointment of Antonio Cafiero as Minister of Economy; while the large business groups, on the other hand, would call for an employer lock-out that would promote forms of "economic subversion."<ref>https://www.global-regulation.com/translation/argentina/140275186/economic-subversion-law-20840---derogation---full-text-of-the-norm.html</ref>
