Autor: Jenne, Nicole; Puente Olivera, María Lourdes Resumen: Abstract: Argentina’s Navy (ARA, Armada ArgentinaArgentina Navy) and its coast guard, the Naval Prefecture (Prefectura Naval Argentina [PNA]), have their origins in the Spanish colonial administration. Except for a short interlude in the 1950s, the Prefecture depended on the Navy until 1983. With the end of Argentina’s military dictatorship (1976–1983), the PNA was transferred to different entities until it was placed under a newly created Ministry of Security. 2019-01-01T00:00:00Z
