description In 1954, the Colorado Party won the elections for the conformation of the Collegiate Executive Branch and parliamentary elections, thus obtaining a majority in Parliament. Luis Batlle Berres took over the presidency in 1955 after a difficult intraparty negotiation to attain parliamentary support. He was Head of the List 15, a faction of the Colorado Party from a political sector known as Batllistas. Since the Colorado Party would lose the following election in 1958 to the National Party, this paper analyses the formation of this last neo-batllista government, in dialogue with the literature that has characterized inter and intraparty relations, so as to reconstruct a key historical moment and understand the crisis of the so called Uruguay Batllista.

Luis Batlle Berres took over the presidency in 1955 after a difficult intraparty negotiation to attain parliamentary support. He was Head of the List 15, a faction of the Colorado Party from a political sector known as Batllistas. Since the Colorado Party would lose the following election in 1958 to the National Party, this paper analyses the formation of this last neo-batllista government, in dialogue with the literature that has characterized inter and intraparty relations, so as to reconstruct a key historical moment and understand the crisis of the so called Uruguay Batllista. En 1954 el Partido Colorado ganó las elecciones para la conformación del Poder Ejecutivo colegiado y parlamentarias, con mayorías en el Parlamento. Sin embargo, Luis Batlle Berres —líder de la Lista 15, una de las fracciones coloradas batllistas— asumió la presidencia del Poder Ejecutivo colegiado en 1955, luego de una dura negociación intrapartidaria para garantizar el apoyo en el Parlamento a la mayoría de su partido. A partir de un análisis de la formación de este gobierno, se dialoga con la literatura que ha caracterizado las relaciones intra e interpartidarias en el proceso, a la vez que se reconstruye un momento histórico clave para comprender la crisis del Uruguay batllista, dado que luego de este período de gobierno, en 1958, el Partido Colorado sería derrotado electoralmente por el Partido Nacional. 2020-06-29 2022-03-17T17:21:08Z 2022-03-17T17:21:08Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo evaluado por pares http://publicaciones.claeh.edu.uy/index.php/cclaeh/article/view/415 10.29192/claeh.39.1.2 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/46165 spa http://publicaciones.claeh.edu.uy/index.php/cclaeh/article/view/415/354 Derechos de autor 2020 Cuadernos del Claeh http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 application/pdf Universidad Centro Latinoamericano de Economía Humana (Universidad CLAEH) Cuadernos del Claeh; Vol. 39 Núm. 111 (2020); 37-63 2393-5979 0797-6062
