CREMASCHI, Verónica. The state housing of the first peronism in Mendoza (1946-55): Approach to its building characteristics. Andes [online]. 2018, vol.29, n.1, pp.00-00. ISSN 1668-8090.

The problem of popular housing was attended during the first Peronist government. Theoretical discussions occurred before turned on the concretion of an enormous amount of houses that allowed the massive access of different social sectors at housing plans. The theoretical proposals of previous governments contribute to carry out a large number of units that allowed the massive access of large sectors of the population to real estate. In line with these national policies, in Mendoza the government built an important number of neighborhoods. However, despite the fact that it characterized the whole period, we notice subtle differences in popular housing between the three governments that followed each other in the province in the Peronist years. We also consider that there was a financial conditioning that affected the decisions in this matter. Those factors explain the typological differences between the houses built in this period in Mendoza. In this work we use different visual and written documents available in provincial archives. Thus, the main purpose of this paper is to show the differences existing in government housing of the first Peronist governments to understand an important history period that have been presented in an homogeneous way by architectural historiography.
