MORGENFELD, LEANDRO. Argentina y Estados Unidos, golpe a golpe (1966-1976). Revista SAAP [online]. 2014, vol.8, n.2, pp.521-554. ISSN 1853-1970.

The decade 1966-1976 was for Argentina not only politically, socially and economically turbulent, but also in the relations with the United States it was too. The dictators of the Revolución Argentina (1966-73) and the Peronist presidents (1973-76), which came to power after 18 years of proscription, staged approaches and conflicts with the United States until the coup of March 24, 1976, which was supported by powerful lobbies in Washington. The growing influence of the National Security Doctrine and the relationship between the Pentagon and the Latin American Armed Forces marked the U.S. relations with their southern neighbors. Argentina, who has been historically reluctant to accept Washington's hegemony in the Southern Cone, pushed for an unprecedented bilateral approach, not without obstacles and limits, related to trade, ideological, geopolitical and even military issues. In this article we discuss, based on a research conducted in recent years in diplomatic archives from both countries, the bilateral relations alternatives, until the coup d'etat that inaugurated the bloodiest dictatorship in Argentine History.
