What remains of the left in Ghioldi’s “Democratic Socialism”? The Argentine Socialist Party in the light of the left and right - wing categories (1946-1955)

This article appeals to the left and right categories to question the performance of the Argentine Socialist Party (PS) during the first Peronism. In the Introduction, we briefly present the central lines of the PS history and underline the gradual replacement of the labor receiver by the appeal to citizenship. Next, we maintain that this transformation was accentuated in the Peronist years, at which time the anti-totalitarian combat, which confronted the PS not only with Peronism but also with communism, ended in a dilution of socialist preaching proper. After pointing out the functions that the antitotalitarian discourse fulfilled for the party leadership, we explained the exhaustion of this preaching after 1955. In the final reflections we argue about the perplexities that antitotalitarian preaching raises regarding the political location of socialism, to the once we address the possibilities and limits of a liberal left.

Palabras clave : Socialism; Left; Anti Totalitarianism; Liberalism.
