“…In violation of this traditional division of tasks, the Gendarmerie extended its jurisdiction to internal affairs and received an increasing budget during the last Argentinean civil-military dictatorship (Hathazy 2016: 79). The first democratic government after the civil-military regime abandoned the dictatorship's National Security Doctrine and passed laws 1 to reimpose strict distinctions between the military and police forces; this was the main concern of the democratic transition IJCJ&SD 44 Online version via www.crimejusticejournal.com © 2019 8(3) (Muzzopappa 2017;Sain 2000;Andersen 2002: 80). However, since the 1990s, the Gendarmerie was called on to provide security to Jewish establishments (Hathazy 2013: 36; Nieves and Bonavena 2014), participate in forensic examinations (Escolar 2017a), support the police in ordinary crime prevention (Nieves and Bonavena 2014) and suppress social protests (Escolar 2017a: 47).…”

This paper offers critical analytical tools to progress the development of a critical green southern criminology. Using Argentina as a case study, the article develops the notion of criminal selectivity to expose the biased functioning of the criminal justice system. The article explores how crime control is used to the detriment of Indigenous peoples, despite the fact that their protests do not produce significant social harm and are framed within constitutional rights. Conversely, the study exposes how the criminal justice system is not used to prosecute green harms perpetrated by corporations or the unlawful use of force against native peoples by law enforcement agencies, despite the harm of those behaviours on the environment and communities. The article exposes how the Argentinean criminal justice system targets the most vulnerable peoples while failing to provide environmental protections, and is an indicator of the bias within criminal justice systems in the Global South.

“…Independently of the discussions regarding the success of reforms of civil-military relations in Argentina since the return of democracy, experts agree that the country succeeded in crafting a set of norms and policies that has set the tone for national defense for almost thirty years. Some have called it "a basic consensus on the defense realm" (SAI N, 2000), "an agreement over the fundamentals" (TOKATLIA N, 2016), an even a "true state policy" (ANZELINI, 2016). One of the most praised features of these policies is that they were the result of a bipartisan consensus reached in congress in the 1980s between part of the governing Unión Cıvica Radical and a wing of the Partido Justicialista, known as Peronismo Renovador.…”

After three decades of democratic reforms, the literature on Latin American civil-military relations has shifted its focus from the military towards civilian elites. Following this trend, this article offers a contribution to the study of the 'civilian variable' by examining two controversial decisions taken by Argentina since 2011: the empowerment of an army of icial who gained in luence over key areas of national defense; and the involvement of the armed forces in antidrug operations. While the literature often relates setbacks in the deepening of democratic control to the autonomy of the armed forces and right-wing ideologies, and the assignment of public security missions based on practical necessity, we argue that the case of contemporary Argentina confounds such interpretations. First, we claim that both decisions are better understood as the products of instrumental political strategies. That is to say, these decisions are taken in pursuit of short-term goals with the objective of maintaining particular civilian elites in power, and are often unrelated to questions of the effectiveness or otherwise of democratic defense policy. Second, against widespread acceptance in the literature of the trend towards greater involvement of the armed forces in the ight against crime, we argue that shifts in military missions in the region have alarming implications for democracy.

Política exterior y de defensa en Argentina. De los gobiernos kirchneristas a Mauricio Macri (2003-2019)

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo avanzar reflexiones exploratorias y preliminares sobre el vínculo entre la política exterior y de defensa en Argentina, abordando los gobiernos kirchneristas (2003-2015) y el gobierno de Mauricio Macri (2015-2019). Se asumen como supuestos que este es un tema escasamente estudiado en dicho país y que la política exterior argentina ha mostrado signos de discontinuidad a lo largo del tiempo. Sobre la base de una estrategia metodológica cualitativa y del análisis de fuentes primarias y secundarias, se asevera que la política exterior ha enmarcado e influenciado a la política de defensa, no viceversa, y que esas influencias variaron en función de cómo los gobiernos nacionales entendieron a la política exterior en tanto política pública, qué propuesta de inserción internacional privilegiaron y qué modelo de desarrollo propusieron.
