La aplicación del realismo político en la política exterior de Chile entre 1973 y 1980

The militarization of the foreign politics in Chile produced serious setbacks to the diplomatic conduction established historically by our country. The allocation of personnel linked to the military world in the embassies, debilitated the bilateral links with the rest of world, deriving in a high international cost for the dictatorship of Pinochet. With the praetorian ideological style adopted by Chile as its formula of negotiation, the regional political scene was altered to critical levels, sensitizing the international relations with its neighbors and displacing the cordial dialog with the utilization of the military forces as a strategy of pressure. This realistic conception in the diplomatic exercise opened the spaces in order that the geopolitical revenges emerged with major force in the Southern Cone.
