The National Fascist Union (Unión Nacional Fascista, UNF) was a fascist political party formed in Argentina in 1936, as the successor to the Argentine Fascist Party.^[2]

In August 1936, UNF leader Nimio de Anquín attempted to force students at a law school in Cordoba to pledge a statement of support for the Spanish dictator Francisco Franco.^[3] Police responded with a crackdown against Argentine nationalists.^[3] Support for the UNF surged after two nationalists were shot in the Colegio Montserrat in 1938.^[3] In the aftermath of the Montserrat murders, Anquin denounced the bourgeoisie for complicity and cowardice and claimed that "communism, Judaism, and degenerate Radicalism" were responsible for causing the murders.^[4] Anquín called for the mourners to swear "by God, honour, and the Fatherland, to return the homicidal bullet".^[4]

By 1939, the UNF was largely defunct, and Anquín returned to his hometown to resume his earlier career as a lecturer.^[1]
