Attracting disenfranchised women, the Junta de la Victoria fostered a democratic alternative to fascism and politicized women in the Southern Cone. The contemporary resurgence of right-wing populist and neo-fascist groups in the Americas makes this meticulously researched study, of a relatively unknown organization of the 1940s, of particular relevance. Highly recommended. --Raanan Rein, author of Populism and Ethnicity: Peronism and the Jews of Argentina In this deeply researched book, Sandra McGee Deutsch provides a compelling narrative of the struggles of Argentine women, often operating in an extremely hostile environment, to combat the rise of fascism at home and abroad. It is a major contribution to our understanding of Argentine history and has significant implications for the present day. --Richard J.
