Rein (history, Tel Aviv U.) concentrates on the vital economic, political, moral, and diplomatic support that Argentine president Juan Per=n gave the internationally isolated Spanish dictatorship during the years 1946-1949, arguing that Argentina's assistance played a central role in saving Franco's regime from collapse until US aid took over at the beginning of the 1950s.
