Abstract

After decades of postponement, during the first and second government of Juan Perón all of the national territories were provincialized by laws of the National Congress. Although Peronism and the parliamentary opposition agreed on the need for provincialization, they had opposite positions on how to carry it out: Peronism proposed gradually converting the national territories into provinces,instead, the opposition, postulated an extensive provincialization to all the territories simultaneously. We argue that one of the causes of this differentiation was found in the dissenting conceptions about federalism that these party groups held: while the opposition argued that federalism implied the autonomy of the provinces vis-à-vis the Nation, in so far as they yielded to the central power only some faculties and kept the rest for themselves; while for Peronism, although this was true, it would also be necessary to consider the existence of a national common good towards which the component parts should contribute.
