MORGENFELD, Leandro. Desarrollismo, Alianza para el Progreso y Revolución Cubana: Frondizi, Kennedy y el Che en Punta del Este (1961-1962). Ciclos hist. econ. soc. [online]. 2012, vol.20, n.40, pp.00-00. ISSN 1851-3735.

US-Argentina relations took a particular interest in the early sixties, when the radicalization of the Cuban Revolution disrupted the Inter-American system. This article discusses this stage of the bilateral relations, focusing on the Conference of the American Economic and Social Council and the Eighth Meeting of Consultation of American Foreign Ministers, held in Punta del Este, Uruguay, in 1961 and 1962. In both meetings the delegations discussed the scope of the "Alliance for Progress" and the expulsion of Cuba from the OAS. The ambivalent position of Frondizi and the White House pressures weaken the Argentine government position, creating the conditions for its overthrow in March, 1962. Earlier, in February, the Armed Forces pushed Frondizi to break diplomatic relations with Cuba. Understanding the implications of the US-Argentina relations throughout this process will allow us to understand the great influence of the National Security Doctrine in Argentina in the following years.
