Federal Peronism (Spanish: Peronismo Federal) or Dissident Peronism (Spanish: Peronismo disidente) are the informal names given to a changing alliance of Justicialist Party figures currently identified mostly by its opposition to ruling Kirchnerism the center-left faction that heads the national Government of Argentina and leads the Peronist movement.The term Federal Peronism as opposed to metropolitan Peronism (mainly from Greater Buenos Aires) was informally used since the 1980s to identify the more traditional and conservative Peronists from the Provinces of Argentina whose governors grew in number and influence during the administration of President Carlos Menem.Dissident Peronism is more properly used to refer to the Peronist opposition to the administrations and party leadership of left-leaning Néstor Kirchner and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner.
