"In this insightful volume, the author provides a multilevel analysis of the workings and lasting impact of Argentine labor<br /> attachÉs in the post–World War II era. . . .  Among the many unique contributions of this book is the analysis of how nationalist PerÓnism became a symbol for domestic and transnational competing visions of liberal democracy and how it was a lens through which US policy makers and elites viewed the legacy of the New Deal. Highly recommended." - L. M. Barnett (Choice) "<i>Ambassadors of the Working Class</i> is one of those rare hidden histories that come to light out of the blue to capture the imagination." - Gavin O'Toole (Latin American Review of Books) "This book will be essential reading for scholars interested in international labor relationships, Peronism, and the ways in which democracy was being debated and redefined in post-World War II Latin America." - Amie Campos (H-Latam, H-Net Reviews) “An outstanding piece of scholarship.” - Stephen G. Rabe (Canadian Journal of History) “<i>Ambassadors of the Working Class</i> is an example of the possibilities offered by a truly transnational historical approach, informed by careful research and relevant theoretical frameworks. It opens interesting comparative perspectives with other movements and countries in Latin America, and it should be of interest to scholars and students of Peronism and the Cold World in Latin America.” - Jorge A. Nállim (Journal of Latin American Studies) "<i>Ambassadors of the Working Class </i>is a terrific story, absorbingly told." - David M. K. Sheinin (Journal of American History) "<i>Ambassadors of the Working Class</i> presents a contradictory and multifaceted Peronism. . . . The timeliness of SemÁn’s analysis is extraordinary. . . . A powerful antidote to conceptions that do not see anything more in Latin American popular governments than 'totalitarian populism.'" - Fernando Teixeira da Silva (American Historical Review) "Engagingly written, and impressively researched, [<i>Ambassadors of the Working Clas</i>s] is a major contribution to the history of Peronism, of labour in Latin America, of inter-American relations, and of the Cold War." - Paulo Drinot (Journal of the Social History Society) "Excellent multinational archival research. . . . Written in accessible and even entertaining style, and solidly grounded in previously untapped primary sources, the book therefore sheds new light not only on Peronism, but more broadly on the international history of the years immediately following the Second World War." - Michael Goebel (Social History) "SemÁn not only tells a fascinating story but also, by taking seriously the challenge of doing transnational history, should inspire reflection on how global history, when produced from below, can shed light on previously ignored issues. . . . <i>Ambassadors of the Working Class</i> is obligatory reading for anyone interested in global history, the Cold War in Latin America, and, of course, Peronism and populism." - Larrisa Rosa Correa (HAHR)
