SAIN, Marcelo. Militarization of the drug-trafficking control in Argentina?. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.24, pp.61-82. ISSN 1900-6586.  https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.366.

The process of militarization of drug-trafficking control in Argentina during the period 2015-2017 is discussed in this article. The political analysis of the issue of public security and drug trafficking establishes an existing tension between the militarizing drive and the economic adjustment (2013-2017), concerning the political consensus, which favors military participation in the control of drug trafficking. It is concluded that this government has enabled the Air Force's intervention in the surveillance of the country's aerospace and the possible thwarting of irregular flights in the national jurisdiction, as well as a set of initiatives and discourses aimed at enabling military involvement in internal security.

Palabras clave : Armed Forces of Argentina; drug trafficking control; militarization of internal security; national defense; public security.
