Which explains the political climate of Argentina after the dirty war

In Argentina, the Dirty War had been going on since the death of Juan Perón in 1974, when his widow, Isabel Martínez de Perón, succeeded him as head of state. Her government was marked by unrest in the country. Far-left groups, such as the Montoneros, provoked kidnappings and bombings. On March 24, 1976, the government of Isabel Perón was overthrown by the right-wing military junta of General Jorge Videla, which initially came to fight these insurgent groups.

The dictatorship was characterized by forced disappearances and illegal detentions of people, both insurgents and innocent people. Democratic elections were held after the military dictatorship lost the Falklands War against Great Britain in 1982.

In 1983 the return of democracy took place, with the electoral victory of Raul Alfonsin. That same year, Videla and his associates appeared in court for crimes against humanity. The new beginning was difficult mainly because of the economic situation, but at the beginning of his tenure Alfonsín had the advantage of having almost all sectors of society on his side, with the exception of the military, which did not interfere in his politics at first.
