| Sumario: | The effects of the democratization triggered by the electoral reform of 1912 and the characteristics of the radical governments have been explored in the case of Mendoza since the triumph of José N. Lencinas over the conservative party leader Emilio Civit in 1918. In general, literature emphasized the personalistic qualities of the radical leader as the driving force behind the success and subsequent collapse of the movement. However, by means of arduous archival work that articulated the press and the session diaries, the gravitation of the political leadership in the construction of the lencinist project was restored. Specifically, by the reconstruction of the itinerary of the lencinist lawyer Manuel Zuloaga it was possible to highlight the importance of the role played by these intermediate cadres and experts in the shaping of this political movement and to discuss the supposed incapacity of the lencinists leaders. Likewise, the study of the political casts sheds light on the special characteristics of lencinist public policies linked to the strengths and weaknesses of state management and its new social role. It is precisely Zuloaga's contributions related to social reformism that were essential for the promotion of the social legislation that characterized lencinism. |
