It argues that the defense revival is driven by a neo-developmentalist strategy and a civilian oversight model over the armed forces. Together, these factors support higher military budgets, rebuilding the defense industry, and establishing a new military doctrine, evaluating how literature on South America has overlooked key causes.","This article was downloaded by: [UQ Library]  \nOn: 18 June 2014, At: 09:44  \nPublisher: Routledge  \nInforma Ltd Registered in England and Wales Registered Number: 1072954 Registered  \noffice: Mortimer House, 37-41 Mortimer Street, London W1T 3JH, UK  \nDefense & Security Analysis  \nPublication details, including instructions for authors and subscription information:  \n[http://www.tandfonline.com/loi/cdan20](http://www.tandfonline.com/loi/cdan20)  \nThe politics of defense revival in Argentina  \nJorge Battaglino a  \na Research Fellow at Argentina's National Science and Technology Research Council (CONICET) , Minones 2177 (1428), Ciudad de Buenos Aires , Argentina  \nPublished online: 06 Mar 2013.  \nTo cite this article: Jorge Battaglino (2013) The politics of defense revival in Argentina, Defense &  \nSecurity Analysis, 29:1, 3-15, DOI: 10 .1080/14751798 .2013 .760251  \nTo link to this article: [http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/14751798.2013.760251](http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/14751798.2013.760251)  \nPLEASE SCROLL DOWN FOR ARTICLE  \nTaylor & Francis makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the“Content”) contained in the publications on our platform .

The main goal ofthis article is to account for this new found interest in defense policy. The article contends that this revival could be accounted for by both the implementation of a neo-developmentalist strategy and a type of control that emphasizes civilian oversight over the armed forces. Both factors have promoted the implementation of policies that favored an increase in the military budget, thereconstruction of the defense industry and the establishment of a new military doctrine. This article evaluates the impact of factors that have not been previously considered by the literature on defense attention in South America.  \nKeywords: defense; Argentina; deficit of attention;
