The application of neoliberal recipes did not resolve, but rather deepened the economic problems. (http://www.me.gov.ar/efeme/24 demarzo/dictadura.html#algu nas) Medidas económicas The dictatorship implemented a plan based on monetary liberalism, which was supported by foreign banks and international organizations. The official in charge of fulfilling the economic plan of the military was José Alfredo Martínez de Hoz. It put an end to the interventionist State, to the protection of the internal market and to subsidies to companies. Salaries were frozen. It let the market operate freely. The final results were disastrous. There was great external indebtedness, the industries went bankrupt and, at the end of the dictatorship, inflation was unleashed..

  • Juicio a Las Juntas Militares (Argentina)
    Juicio a las juntas militares (Argentina) The 1985 trial of the Argentinean Military Junta Members is an historical trial which saw the prosecution of the leaders of the three first Argentinean juntas of 1976 – 1983. The hearings were held from 22 April to 9 December 1985. Due to the large number of victims, the Court selected 280 emblematic cases among the 709 cases presented by the Prosecution. The Prosecutor’s closing argument, with its “ ¡ nuncas mas !”, remains historical. On 9 December 1985, the verdict stated that the Military Juntas had “developed and implemented a criminal plan to fight terrorism, leaving considerable discretion to the junior officers of the armed forces to imprison those who where described as ‘subversives’ by the intelligence services; to torture them; to subject them to inhumane living conditions; and ultimately to decide freely on the final fate of their victims: being transferred to the legal system (judiciary or police), being released, or being simply executed” (unofficial translation of an extract of the judgment). Jorge Rafael Videla and Emilio Eduardo Massera (first Junta) were sentenced to life imprisonment. Roberto Eduardo Viola (second Junta) was sentenced to 17 years’ imprisonment, Armando Lambruschini (second Junta) to 8 years and Orlando Ramón Agosti (first Junta) to 4 years. Omar Graffigna (second Junta), Leopoldo Galtieri, Jorge Isaac Anaya et Basilio Lami Dozo (third Junta) were acquitted for lack of evidence. This trial is the first in South-America where former dictators were brought before judges by a democratic government. On 29 December 1990, Argentinean President Carlos Menen published Decree 2741/90 pardoning the accused sentenced during the 1985 trial.

  • 24 De Marzo De 1976 (II) Los Dos Significados Del Golpe Revista Realidad Económica Bs.As
    Articulo 178 Bis 24 de marzo de 1976 (II) Los dos significados del golpe http://www.iade.org.ar Revista Realidad Económica Bs.As. (Arg) núm. 178 febrero-marzo de 2001 Martín Granovsky* Ninguna fecha como el 24 de marzo de 2001 encierra, al mismo tiempo, dos significados tan fuertes. Se cumplen 25 años de cuando comenzó el proyecto más exitoso para disciplinar -como lo definió brillantemente Adolfo Canitrot- a los sectores sociales argentinos que debían adaptarse al crecimiento del sector financiero. Y hoy, 25 años después, como sucede en cada aniversario del golpe de estado de 1976, las chances de impunidad de los jefes militares de la dictadura se achican en proporción inversa a la fuerza social del reclamo en favor de la reconstrucción de la memoria colectiva. Pero más allá de ambas certezas, ¿el golpe fue el momento más alto en la articulación del partido militar? ¿O fue una etapa en la utilización de las Fuerzas Armadas por parte de la franja aristocrática que podría encarnarse en José Alfredo Martínez de Hoz? Hay interpretaciones a mano para contestar sí o no alternativamente a cualquiera de las dos preguntas. Sin embargo, la respuesta que aquí se propone es un sí y otro sí. Un libro reciente, la biografía de Jorge Videla escrita por María Seoane y Vicente Muleiro, cuenta con detalles la preparación empresaria del golpe a cargo de lo que se llamó el Grupo Perriaux. Se trataba de un equipo de conspiradores al mando de Jaime Perriaux, un mediocre discípulo argentino del filósofo español José Ortega y Gasset y a la vez parte del grupo de propietarios o miembros de directorios de grandes empresas que en esos últimos años habían nutrido, sobre todo, los gabinetes de José María Guido y de Juan Carlos Onganía, Roberto Marcelo Levingston y Alejandro Agustín Lanusse.
