Douglas Madsen is Professor of Political Science, University of Iowa. Peter G. Snow is Professor of Political Science at the University of Iowa.

In their study of the evolution, institutionalization, and eventual fragmentation of Peronism in Argentina, Madsen and Snow focus scholarly attention on precisely the issues that most interested Weber himself… This compact and cogent book manages to clarify many points in Weber’s original treatment, and makes a compelling argument about the nature and development of Peronism.
