| Sumario: | This article explores the circumstances surrounding the decision adopted by the national strategic leadership, in the stage prior to the armed confrontation between the Argentine Republic and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Without intending to close the debate, we will focus on the reaction and the appreciation made by the government, at the time of making the decision, seeking to reveal that the rationality for the use of military power does not constitute per se an invalid strategic option. Its invalidity arises when the decisions come from reactions, provoked by the antagonist, that prevail over a rational appreciation of reality. |
