Sumario:This article analyses the involvement of the Argentine Foreign Service in the kidnapping and forced disappearance operation of four Argentine activists in Peru, in June of 1980. Based on the approach to a specific case of extraterritorial repression, this analysis intends to contribute to the historical knowledge of repressive coordination between the dictatorships in the Southern Cone and to inquire into the role fulfilled therein by the formal and regular agencies of the Terrorist State, so as to supplement historiographical research which has focused on the role of irregular and clandestine structures involved in said regional cooperation.
