Resumen
AVENBURG, Alejandro. American bureaucracy and foreign policy change. The transition to The U.S. human rights policy to Argentina under the Carter administration (1976-1977). Relac. int. [online]. 2018, vol.27, n.54, pp.121-130. ISSN 2314-2766.
This article analyzes the role of the State Department and of the U.S. Embassy in Buenos Aires during the implementation of Jimmy Carter's human rights policy to-wards Argentina. Prior research has emphasized the reluctance of those sectors to im-plement this policy change. Using declassified documents from the U.S. State Depart-ment, we analyze two channels of implementation of this policy: economic and military sanctions, and private bilateral contacts. We argue that, while those actors opposed U.S. sanctions against Argentina, in private bilateral meetings they consistently supported measures that sought to improve the situation of human rights in Argentina.
