Partido Nuevo Triunfo (New Triumph Party) was a small far-right and Neo-Nazi political party in Argentina banned on 17 March 2009 through a ruling by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice. [1]
The party was formed by Alejandro Biondini in 1990 as the Partido Nacionalista de los Trabajadores (Nationalist Worker's Party), initially as a breakaway from the Justicialist Party. [2] The party leader anticipated economic crisis in the country which he felt would set up the basis for a takeover by revolutionary nationalism. [3] Biondini is a veteran of the international neo-Nazi scene, having established a group called Alerta Nacional in 1984, which he described as 'a small part of the great worldwide socialist movement'. This group attempted to form links between the country's various extreme right groups. [4]
The party was re-launched as the New Triumph Party in November 1997, identifying itself as 'the political, militant and electoral expression of Argentine national socialism'. [5] At a time when use of the internet by fringe political groups was limited but growing in popularity the New Triumph Party's online publication Libertad de Opinión (Freedom of Opinion) broke new ground in Argentina by providing a regular forum for Argentine neo-Nazism and anti-Semitism. [5] Ricardo Brinzoni was briefly associated with the group as his lawyer Juan Enrique Torres Bande was a member. [6]
The party has consistently attempted to gain legal recognition but has been rejected. [2] Nonetheless, in the 2005 Argentine legislative election Biondini's wife and son, members of the party, stood as candidates for Acción Ciudadana, a group headed by Jorge Colotto, the general commissioner of the Policía Federal Argentina. [7]
The party supports Neo-Nazism and seeks to use Argentina as the new Nazi base. It has been claimed that Biondini believes that Adolf Hitler had identified Argentina as the future of Nazism. He has claimed that in the final days in the Führerbunker Hitler pointed to Argentina on a map and stated that 'from there the new leader will come'. [2]
The party has also been vocal in its criticism of the major political parties and leaders, denouncing Fernando de la Rúa as a puppet of the Zionist Occupation Government, a conspiracy theory. [2] As part of this rhetoric it also emphasises its grounding in Christianity. [8]
The ideas of the party have been summed up by them in declaration of policies which states five aims for the Argentine people. These are listed as:
Neo-fascism is a post-World War II far-right ideology that includes significant elements of fascism. Neo-fascism usually includes ultranationalism, ultraconservatism, racial supremacy, right-wing populism, authoritarianism, nativism, xenophobia, and anti-immigration sentiment, sometimes with economic liberal issues, as well as opposition to social democracy, parliamentarianism, Marxism, capitalism, communism, and socialism. As with classical fascism, it occasionally proposes a Third Position as an alternative to market capitalism.
Neo-Nazism comprises the post-World War II militant, social, and political movements that seek to revive and reinstate Nazi ideology. Neo-Nazis employ their ideology to promote hatred and racial supremacy, to attack racial and ethnic minorities, and in some cases to create a fascist state.
Far-right politics, often termed right-wing extremism, encompasses a range of ideologies that are typically marked by radical conservatism, authoritarianism, ultra-nationalism, and nativism. This political spectrum situates itself on the far end of the right, distinguished from more mainstream right-wing ideologies by its opposition to liberal democratic norms and emphasis on exclusivist views. Far-right ideologies have historically included fascism, Nazism, and Falangism, while contemporary manifestations also incorporate neo-fascism, neo-Nazism, white supremacy, and various other movements characterized by chauvinism, xenophobia, and theocratic or reactionary beliefs.
The Radical Civic Union is a major political party in Argentina. It has reached the national government on ten occasions, making it one of the most historically important parties. Ideologically, the party has stood for radicalism, secularism and universal suffrage. Especially during the 1970s and 1980s, it was perceived as a strong advocate for human rights. Its factions however, have been more heterogeneous, ranging from conservative liberalism to social democracy.
Strasserism is an ideological strand of Nazism which adheres to revolutionary nationalism and to economic antisemitism, which conditions are to be achieved with radical, mass-action and worker-based politics that are more aggressive than the politics of the Hitlerite leaders of the Nazi Party. Named after brothers Gregor and Otto Strasser, the ideology of Strasserism is a type of Third Position, right-wing politics in opposition to Communism and to Hitlerite Nazism.
The Democratic Party is a provincial conservative and liberal party in Mendoza, Argentina. It was founded in 1983.

The Movimiento Nacionalista Tacuara was an Argentine far right, orthodox Peronist, and fascist movement. While officially established in 1957, its activities started in 1955, and continued through the 1960s, being integrated in Juan Perón's right-wing "Special Formations". Linked to the more radical sectors of the Peronist movement and directly inspired by Julio Meinvielle's Catholic pronouncements, Tacuara defended nationalist, Catholic, anti-liberal, anti-communist, antisemitic, and anti-democratic ideas, and had as its first model José Antonio Primo de Rivera's fascist Falange Española. In the years 1960–1966, the movement incorporated neo-Nazi elements.
