What is, in explainable layman's terms, Peronism in Argentina?

Asked by srmorgan (6773points) February 8th, 2010

The President of Argentina, one Cristina Kirchner, is trying to take over the Central Bank and has recently appropriated the private pension funds held in trust. She is described as subscribing to the Peronista agenda.

Exactly what is Peronism? Socialism, Fascism, government run by oligarchy?
I know of the cult of popularity of Evita Peron, but she is long dead. Is this a legitimate political philosophy or movement?
