Argentina's Peronist Resistance After 1955 Coup

After the 1955 Revolución Libertadora ousted Juan Domingo Perón, Argentina entered a period of political instability marked by violent repression and the rise of the Peronist resistance. This episode explores the clandestine activities of the Peronist underground, including the formation of the Comando de la Resistencia Peronista, the role of John William Cooke as Perón's delegate, and the 1956 June uprising led by General Juan José Valle. We delve into the brutal crackdown that followed the failed revolt, with the execution of 27 civilians and military personnel, and the long-term impact on Argentine politics. The episode also examines the transformation of Peronism from a political movement to a culture of resistance that would shape the country's violent conflicts in the decades to come.
