BLINDER, Daniel. The United Kingdom and Argentina: geopolitics of technological constraint and strategic-export controls. rev.relac.int.estrateg.segur. [online]. 2018, vol.13, n.1, pp.119-145. ISSN 1909-3063.  https://doi.org/10.18359/ries.2861.

The present article aims to study the geopolitics of technological constraining by the United Kindom to the Argentine Republic using export controls of military technology or dual use. It uses British defense and trade institutions, but also international organizations. Also, it analyzes the documentation published by said Government, referring to the South American country in the matter of export control, whose public policy is subject to strategic decisions, both locally and globally, represented in space / power logic by the Malvinas. It will be seen how governmental institutions are engaged in attacking the institutional springs by which Argentina could access sensitive technologies; that is, by limiting the acquisition of capabilities that will result in military power and threaten the interests of the islands. Evidence from the sources consulted shows that this policy has been explicit and open, and has been successful, which has limited the acquisition of British technology.

Palabras clave : geopolitics; technology; Argentina; United Kingdom; Malvinas.
