Exiled Peron Returns After 17 Years Away
Exiled Argentine strongman Juan Peron, age 77, returns after almost 17 years abroad. He reasserted political influence, set up a Peronist coalition, and helped his hand-picked Hector Campora win the presidency. His rule from 1946 to 1955 featured labor reforms, nationalizations, and a personality cult, but also repression, church clashes, and corruption.
