MANZANO ITURRA, Karen Isabel. The Beagle Channel dispute and its geopolitical consequences for the Austral-Antarctic region. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.35, pp.799-815.  Epub 01-Jul-2021. ISSN 1900-6586.  https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.786.

For a century, the Beagle Channel was a point of contention for Chile and Argentina concerning their borders in the southern zone. Its geographical location implied a dispute between both nations' opposing geopolitical interests. This article analyzes the dispute over the Beagle Channel through a qualitative methodology with an established timeline (1881-1984). To this end, it assumes a geopolitical approach, resourcing the treaties and agreements established during this time and Chilean and Argentine authors defending the interests of their respective countries. As a result, it establishes the implications in the Austral-Antarctic Sea and the consequences in the maritime and continental shelf domains, which persist to this day.

Palavras-chave : Argentina; Beagle Channel; Chile; conflict resolution; geopolitics; international tensions.
