This article studies the legal conflict that began in 1937 and culminated in 1953 with the nationalization of one of the most powerful financial and industrial conglomerates in Argentina: the Bemberg group. It holds that the result constituted a symbolic response by Peronism to the 1930s, a time of frustration for the workers' movement and of state weakness. Using new documentary sources, the author analyzes the state administration of firms and the projects undertaken during the first phase of Peronism (1946-1955) which tended to transfer the former to worker and trade unión cooperatives. A propos of this, the study explores the changing relations between economic and political power in Argentina during the first half of the 20th century.

Palabras llave : Economic groups; industry; nationalization; Peronism; trade unions.
