MIGUEZ, María Cecilia. ¿Anticomunistas, antiestatistas, antiperonistas? La "nacionalización" de la doctrina de seguridad nacional en la Argentina y la legitimación del golpe de Estado de 1966¹. Revista SAAP [online]. 2013, vol.7, n.1. ISSN 1853-1970.

In Argentina, in August 1964, general Juan Carlos Onganía, Commander in Chief of the Army, assumed publicly the doctrine of national security elaborated in the United States. The anti-communist and antipopular speech was increasing during the whole government of Arturo Illia (1963-1966). The present article analyzes how the Armed Forces and the dominant economic sectors used the idea of "ideological borders" principally to justify the proscription of Peronism and at the same time to legitimize the coup d'état in June 1966. To that end, the article examines the positions of the military leadership, conservative politicians, and major financial corporations. The national security doctrine was used in that period as an argument against communism, against Peronism, and against state intervention in the economy.

Keywords : Doctrine of national security; Illia; Antiperonism; Coup; Ruling classes.
