LICHTMAJER, Leandro Ary. The party as a field of disputes: the intransigent Radical Civic Union of Tucumán (1957-1962). Andes [online]. 2018, vol.29, n.1, pp.00-00. ISSN 1668-8090.
The questions about the course of radicalism in the stage of political instability and social conflict between the coups of 1955 and 1962 are linked to the need to understand the trajectory of the parties in a key stage in Argentina´s contemporary history. In this context, the analysis of the emergence and trajectory of the Intransigent Radical Civic Union in the province of Tucuman (Argentina) seeks to put on debate the interpretations structured around the notion of instrumental party. This feature would have derived from the centralized leadership of Arturo Frondizi, founder of the UCRI and president of the nation between 1958 and 1962, and an inherent weakness of the party from the organizational point of view. From our point of view, that notion has obstructed the analysis focused on the features of the organization and its internal conflicts. In virtue of such considerations, this paper aims to rebuild the trajectory of the party in the province of Tucumán, illuminating the tensions and disputes that structured the relationship between their various levels (departmental, provincial, national), the density of its internal framework and the dynamism of its party life at the grassroots level.
