Summarizing more than five years of research in Argentine archives and the International Institute of Social History, in Amsterdam, this paper provides an assessment of both the organizational and political characteristics of the Argentine Socialist Party, against the context of its international links with European social democracy, in the period before the First World War. It draws upon different articles published over the course of these years and material from my forthcoming book on the history of early Argentine Socialism.
