The Palgrave Macmillan series, Security, Conflict and Cooperation in
the Contemporary World aims to make a significant contribution to
academic and policy debates on cooperation, conflict and security since
1900. It evolved from the series Global Conflict and Security edited by
Professor Saki Ruth Dockrill. The current series welcomes proposals that
offer innovative historical perspectives, based on archival evidence and
promoting an empirical understanding of economic and political coop-
eration, conflict and security, peace-making, diplomacy, humanitarian
intervention, nation-building, intelligence, terrorism, the influence of
ideology and religion on international relations, as well as the work of
international organisations and non-governmental organisations.

“The book is constructed by pioneering research of outstanding quality. It places
British foreign policy of the 1970s in a quite new and questionable light.”
—David Rock, Emeritus Professor of History, University of California, USA,
author of Argentina 1516–1987: From Spanish Colonization to Alfonsin

“Grace Livingstone provides a brilliantly original analysis of UK-Latin American

relations prior to the Falklands conflict. Her investigations into recently released
archives yield many important insights into the often murky fields of arms sales,
the politics of oil, and violations of human rights. Livingstone also develops orig-
inal and illuminating theoretical perspectives on her subject. Scholarly, compel-
ling and intellectually sophisticated, this book is outstanding.”
—John Dumbrell, Emeritus Professor of Government, Durham University, UK

“Meticulously researched, well-written and very convincing, this book is an

authoritative account of the making of British foreign policy towards the mil-
itary regimes of Argentina and Chile. It is an indispensable study of how both
Conservative and Labour governments tried to balance the competing forces
attempting to influence the policy-making process. I cannot recommend it too
highly.”
—Alan Angell, Emeritus Fellow, St Antony’s College, Oxford, UK

“In this major new study, Grace Livingstone contrasts the way in which British
Governments treated the military dictatorships in Chile and Argentina during the
1970s and 1980s, examining the conflicts between ministers and officials, and
the role of public opinion. It is an absorbing read which illuminates some dark
corners of British foreign policy.”
—Andrew Gamble, Professor of Politics, University of Sheffield, UK

“This is an exhaustive exploration of British National Archives covering

Pinochet’s coup in Chile in 1973 and the Argentine coup of 1976 leading to the
South Atlantic conflict in 1982. The resulting book provides a detailed analysis
of British foreign policy-making towards Chile and Argentina in the Cold War
years. The focus is on the diverging and contrasting attitudes of both Labour and
Conservative governments when dealing with Chile and Argentina. All in all, this
book is a must read for those interested in international relations, in the making
of British foreign policy, and in understanding the context that led to the 1982
conflict.”
—Celia Szusterman, The Institute for Statecraft, UK

“Grace Livingstone’s work marks an important contribution to the study of

British policy toward Latin America. Examining the informal networks of a wide
range of actors, from civil servants and politicians to business leaders and interest
groups, it demonstrates how the social class of officials influenced the policymak-
ing process.”
—Aaron Donaghy, EU Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Fellow,
Harvard University, USA

“Grace Livingstone’s meticulous and detailed work to unearth and document the
execrable position of the FCO, its desk officers, section heads and embassy staff,
is wonderful. This book takes us behind the scenes to see how Foreign Office
ambassadors and civil service respond to and seek to mould the policies of gov-
ernments—nowhere more so than in their response to the 1973 military coup
in Chile. Conservatives wanted business as usual, Labour wanted an ethical for-
eign policy. Human rights campaigners wanted something stronger. Here, in tel-
egrams and briefing memos, you can see how it all played out. Grace Livingstone
has added a vital and previously missing component to our understanding of the
period.”
—Mike Gatehouse, former joint-secretary of the Chile Solidarity Campaign

 CHAPTER 1

Introduction: Making Friends

With the Junta

While researching this book I interviewed a former minister in the

Thatcher government. As we sat in his private members club, sipping tea
and balancing biscuits on delicate china saucers, he told me that British
ministers had given little thought to the human rights abuses being com-
mitted by the Argentine dictatorship in the years before the Falklands
war. It was the Cold War he reminded me. I was surprised and impressed
by his frankness, but when I wrote to him afterwards asking for permis-
sion to cite his exact words, he refused and instead supplied me with an
anodyne quote which bore little relation to his previous remarks.
Interviewees can be unreliable sources for historians. It is hard for
anyone to remember accurately events from decades before. Politicians,
especially, can be prone to embellish or omit facts to ensure that they are
remembered in the best possible light. But after a war, the temptation
to embroider or erase is particularly great. It is therefore vital that we go
back to the contemporary records to find out what government ministers
and officials actually said at the time.
Using the newly-opened British government papers at the National
Archives, this book looks at Britain’s relations with the Argentine dicta-
torship that came to power in 1976. It not only gives the most complete
picture of British arms sales to the regime, providing evidence that minis-
ters violated their own guidelines on human rights, but also outlines the
political and military links between Britain and the junta. Neither Labour
nor Conservative governments imposed any sanctions on the Argentine

military government before the invasion of the Falkland Islands in 1982.

Both governments promoted trade and sold military hardware that was
later used against British forces.
In contrast, the Labour governments of Harold Wilson and James
Callaghan (1974–1979) imposed a series of measures against the regime
of General Augusto Pinochet in Chile that represented an early example
of an ‘ethical’ foreign policy—an arms embargo, a refugee programme,
the cutting of export credits and the withdrawal of the British ambas-
sador. These measures were overturned when Margaret Thatcher’s
Conservative government came to power in 1979. While the British
labour movement barely noticed the coup in Argentina in 1976, it had
been horrified when Hawker Hunter planes bombed the Chilean pres-
idential palace on 11 September 1973. Thirty years later, the Chilean
coup still aroused passionate divisions among British politicians.
Speaking to the Labour Party conference in 1999, Tony Blair confessed
that he found General Pinochet ‘unspeakable’, while Peter Mandelson,
an architect of New Labour, which sought to eradicate naïve leftism
from the party’s ideology, declared that it would be ‘gut-wrenching’ if
the former Chilean dictator evaded extradition to Spain.1 Former Prime
Minister Margaret Thatcher and her ex-chancellor Norman Lamont,
meanwhile, spoke out in defence of Pinochet as a ‘friend of Britain’.
The opening of the archives has also made it possible to investigate
whether the British government had economic or strategic reasons for
retaining sovereignty over the Falkland Islands—a longstanding debate
between Argentine and British academics and politicians. While the doc-
umentary record suggests that fear of a domestic political outcry over
‘selling-out’ the Islanders was the primary reason British politicians failed
to reach a sovereignty deal with Argentina in this period, the evidence
presented here shows that the British government and British oil com-
panies were very interested in exploiting the oil in the waters around
the Islands and that whenever cabinet ministers discussed the Falklands
dispute, securing Britain’s access to the hydrocarbon and other marine
resources was part of the calculations. This book also presents exclusive
evidence that, during the Falklands War, ministers feared that losing the
Islands could set a precedent for Britain’s territorial claim in Antarctica.
But this is not a history of the Falklands dispute, nor is it simply
an account of Britain’s relations with two South American dictator-
ships; it is an investigation into the making of foreign policy. Taking an
inter-disciplinary approach, it assesses the factors that influence pol-
icy-makers and considers the role of private companies and banks,
 1 INTRODUCTION: MAKING FRIENDS WITH THE JUNTA 3

politicians and party ideology, and the media. It gauges the extent to
which human right groups, solidarity campaigns and other social move-
ments can have an impact on policy.
The attitudes of British diplomats and officials are also looked
at closely. British diplomats welcomed the coups in both Chile and
Argentina and sought to dissuade Labour ministers from taking any
type of sanction against the military regimes. In this Cold War period,
they were profoundly suspicious of radicalism both at home and abroad.
British business leaders shared these attitudes and were critical of any
policies that might ‘sour the atmosphere’ for those who wished to
invest or trade with these dictatorships. This book examines the nar-
row social background of British officials and traces the informal social
networks between diplomats, officials, business leaders, and other influ-
ential figures such as newspaper editors, peers and Conservative poli­
ticians. It argues that theoretical approaches to foreign policy-making
should not ignore the social class of state officials nor the social context
in which they operate. Similarly, when analysing how social movements
can influence policy, it is important to consider the existing biases of
policy-makers and their informal links to the private sector or other
influential societal groups.
One of the central themes of this work is the extent to which elected
politicians have the freedom to implement policy and how far they are
constrained by external factors: the agency-structure debate. One of
the main divisions among international relations theorists is between
those who focus on relationships between states and those who think
it important to look at how decisions are made within states. Informed
by foreign policy analysts who seek to ‘open the black box’ of the deci-
sion-making process, this study looks closely at how policy is made.2
While acknowledging that policy-makers may be constrained by systemic
factors, it accepts that there is, in Christopher Hill’s words, a ‘decisional
space’ in which politicians can choose between different policy options
or, as Gaskarth has put it: ‘The British government retains the capacity
to make political choices and these decisions have important effects.’3 It
accepts too, as Carlsnaes notes, that neither the individual (the national
politician) nor the structure (the international area) is an immutable sep-
arate entity: each continually influences and shapes the other.4 The book
is based on the premise that the state remains a legitimate focus of study
for understanding international relations, despite the growth of transna-
tional organisations, such as multinational corporations or international
4 G. LIVINGSTONE

non-governmental organisations (NGOs). Certainly, during the period

under study—the 1970s and 1980s—and to a large extent today, nation
states retain a capacity to shape the rules of the international game,
formu­lating policies on key areas such as trade, tax and immigration.5
A politician may have the freedom to make foreign-policy choices
within the constraints of international circumstances, but there is another
aspect of the agency-structure debate that is looked at more closely in
these pages and that is the extent to which a politician is able to pursue
his or her chosen policies in the face of bureaucratic opposition from the
civil service. Or to put it another way, it asks who makes policy: the dem-
ocratically-elected politician or the appointed official? David Vital, for
example, once suggested that the very excellence of the Foreign Office
bureaucratic machine, its efficiency and its competence, made its influ-
ence so formidable that the role of any Cabinet or Foreign Secretary
could become marginal.6 The question has been of particular interest to
the left wing of the Labour party which, from Harold Laski and Stafford
Cripps in the 1930s to Richard Crossman and Tony Benn in the 1960s
and 1970s, has long held the suspicion that a conservative civil service
will seek to undermine left-wing governments.7 Crossman’s diaries were
one of the sources of the BBC TV comedy Yes Minister, which portrayed
Machiavellian civil servants as the real power behind the throne.
Foreign Office documents show that Foreign and Commonwealth
Office (FCO) officials welcomed the overthrow of the socialist presi-
dent of Chile, Salvador Allende, and were critical of British activists and
Labour politicians who campaigned against the coup. Thus, the election
of a Labour government determined to take radical measures against the
Pinochet regime provides an opportunity to examine the power of the
elected politician versus the bureaucrat. The governments of Edward
Heath and Margaret Thatcher shared with the Foreign Office a similar
attitude towards the Pinochet regime, so there was little debate or antag-
onism between politicians and officials on policy towards Chile and there
is therefore little scope to examine the power of the politician against the
bureaucratic machine during those Conservative administrations.
In the case of Argentina, Labour did not seek to introduce tough
sanctions against the junta, so once again there was less conflict in the
policy-making process, although whenever Labour politicians did
consider taking measures on human rights, the Foreign Office advo-
cated moderation, warning of the risks to commercial and polit-
ical relations. The politician versus bureaucrat debate does arise in the
 1 INTRODUCTION: MAKING FRIENDS WITH THE JUNTA 5

context of Argentina, however, as some British politicians and histo-

rians have accused the Foreign Office of pursuing, in an underhand
manner, policies that were aimed at transferring the sovereignty of the
Falkland Islands to Argentina, against the wishes of both Labour and
Conservative governments. This claim is explored and judged to be
unfounded.
One of the central propositions of this book is that the attitudes of
British diplomats and state officials reflected, at least in part, their
social class: their upbringing, education, their socio-economic and cul-
tural status, and the social circles in which they moved. Theorists of
Foreign Policy Analysis—the sub-set of international relations which
has looked most closely at the decision-making process—have consid-
ered many attributes that might affect the decisions of policy-makers,
including their psychology, their belief systems and the political culture
in which they operate. Much useful work has been done on the func-
tioning of bureaucracies, their structures, inter-departmental rivalries and
the nuances of group dynamics.8 But social class is a factor that has been
overlooked.9
The ‘critical’ approach to foreign policy-making proposed by Dunne,
Hadfield and Smith, which emphasises the need to look at both agency
and structure, and advocates a theoretically-informed reading of the pri-
mary sources, could allow for the class background and informal social
networks of state officials to be considered; however the case studies in
their collection have not done so.10
There is a neo-Gramscian critique of international relations, follow-
ing the work of Robert Cox, which introduces the idea of class and class
conflict into the field of international relations; however, this work has
been largely theoretical, rather than empirically or historically based,
and it focuses on the international level rather than the national deci-
sion-making process.11 Marxist-inspired dependency theorists, mean-
while, did seek to study class formation in both the metropolis and the
periphery, but the state and decision-making were not their main focus
of study.12 If it is accepted, however, that national governments have
the power to shape the framework within which countries interact and
within which private companies operate, then the study of the deci-
sion-making process is a crucial question for those interested in power
and social class. And by taking account of the social context in which
these decisions are made, we can begin to identify the individuals or soci-
etal groups which have most influence on policy—accepting, of course,
6 G. LIVINGSTONE

that these state-societal relations will vary in different historical periods

and from country to country.
The Foreign Office has long drawn its recruits from a narrow stra-
tum of society. Originally recruited from the aristocracy, by the end of
the nineteenth century, officials were increasingly being drawn from the
class which Cain and Hopkins have described as ‘gentlemanly capital-
ists’, consisting of landowners and rich professionals from the fields of
finance, law or other services who had re-invested in land and through
their wealth, inter-marriage and public-school education had been ele-
vated into the social elite.13 This southern-centred elite, which dom-
inated the ancient universities, the civil service, the armed forces, the
church, the City and the major professions, was socially separate from,
and may have looked down upon, the manufacturing magnates of the
great northern cities such as Manchester and Liverpool. However, after
the Second World War, the financial and industrial elites became more
socially intertwined, as the City became more involved in financing large
scale industry, as corporations became more important wealth creators
than individuals, as productive manufacturing businesses came under the
control of banks, and as industrialists themselves invested in land and
adopted the lifestyle of the ‘gentlemanly capitalists’.14 One illustration of
this social transformation is the change in careers of Oxford graduates: in
1917 no graduate went into industry or commerce (all were employed
in education or public service), whereas by 1958, as many as 50% found
employment within industrial or commercial firms.15
Labour party intellectual Harold Laski memorably described the
Foreign Office in the 1930s as a ‘nest of public school singing birds’,
and throughout the twentieth century, the proportion of recruits who
attended fee-paying schools remained high, despite the reforms fol-
lowing the Fulton Report of 1968, which aimed to make it easier for
people from humbler backgrounds to reach top jobs in the diplomatic
service.16 In the period 1950–1954, 83% of recruits to the Foreign
Office had attended private school. Ten years later, the proportion had
fallen to 68%; but the figure for the top-ranking posts was higher: more
than 80% of ambassadors and senior FCO officials in 1961 had attended
fee-paying schools (and these public-school educated ambassadors took
all the most prestigious postings, such as Paris, Berlin and New York).17
Even by 1993, 66% of the fast-track entrants to the FCO—those des-
tined for the top posts—had attended public school.18 They were also
overwhelmingly male: in 1991, only 3.4% of the top grades in the
 1 INTRODUCTION: MAKING FRIENDS WITH THE JUNTA 7

FCO were women, which added to the clubbish nature of the Foreign
Office.19 A survey conducted for this book of diplomats dealing with
policy towards Argentina and Chile in the 1970s and 1980s found that
more than 75% had attended fee-paying schools.20 Most Foreign Office
officials were also graduates of Oxford or Cambridge; in 1966, 84% of
successful applicants for the diplomatic service came from these two uni-
versities; by 1989, this had fallen only slightly to 73%.21 When a senior
diplomat claimed in 1977 that recruitment to the Diplomatic Service was
wide open, Labour MP Neville Sandelson retorted: ‘Like the Ritz’.22
While few deny that FCO officials are recruited from a narrow social
base, Theakston and others have argued that it is hard to draw a straight-
forward connection between diplomats’ class backgrounds and their
views.23 Certainly, a number of caveats need to be made. Working class
Jim Callaghan got on better with FCO officials than the young mid-
dle-class upstart David Owen, although Callaghan did make sure he
distributed Labour Party manifestos to FCO staff on becoming Foreign
Secretary.24 Similarly trade unionist Ernest Bevin—who liked to boast
that he was educated ‘in the hedgerows of experience’—was well-re-
spected, even loved, by the FCO, while aristocrat Tony Benn was always
highly suspicious of the civil service.25 So clearly social class—particularly
that of a single individual—cannot be the only indicator of a person’s
views and cannot be the only indicator worth evaluating.
There was also a range of views among FCO officials, although this
remained within a narrow spectrum from conservative to conservatively
moderate and all new recruits imbibed the ethos of gentlemanly capital-
ism that permeated the institution. But, the Foreign Office always kept
a certain autonomy; diplomats prided themselves on seeing the ‘overall
picture’ and certainly did not act as the ‘arm’ of the business-­owning
class. In fact, other government departments, such as the Ministry of
Defence sales section, had a much closer relationship with the private
sector, sometimes acting as virtual lobbyists for arms companies and
chafing against any restrictions on sales opportunities. The Departments
of Energy and Trade also had close links with the oil and manufacturing
companies. To some extent, the FCO saw itself as an arbitrator between
departments and these bureaucratic rivalries—or differences of institu-
tional perspective—are explored throughout the work.
It should also be emphasised that Foreign Office attitudes evolved
during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries as the social composition
of recruits changed. Otte, who accepts that the mindset of officials did
