• The Irish Legation in Perón’s Argentina (1948–55) by Paul Hand, School of Law and Government, Dublin City University. Detailed (18 sides) articles focuses on Irish diplomacy towards Peron. Through his interactions with diplomatic and journalistic contacts as well as with Irish- Argentinean acquaintances, the Irish diplomat, Murphy perceptively documented both the dubious economic policies and the increasing totalitarianism of the government, which ultimately paved the way for Perón’s downfall.
