Abstract: Following World War II, nationalist strongman Juan Perón influenced the Argentine national identity through his controversial political, economic, and social reforms. Though a popular friend of the proletariat, Perón earned many enemies by ignoring and alienating the land-owning elites, the middle class, and the liberal intelligentsia. By following the personal histories of journalists Jacobo Timerman and Robert Cox, as well as the stories of the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo, this paper will chronicle and analyze the shifts in individual and political Argentine identities beginning during the polarizing era of Peronism and extending through the Dirty War.
