Preface
Soon after the 1982 war one reviewer, overcomeby the pro-
liferation of official, academicand journalistic studies on the
Falklands/Malvinas dispute, complained that never in the
sphereof humanconflict had so much beenwritten by so many
so quickly. He might well have added a reference to the
relatively low quality and narrow focus of most productsof the
Falklandspublicationindustry, sincethe majority were charac-
terisedby either a vague,incompleteand instant knowledgeof
the topic and/or an attempt to prove a particular point rather
than to searchfor an objectiveand balancedaccount.Neverthe-
less, a number of studies, mostly in the form of articles,
pamphlets and radio broadcasts, have made important
contributions,even if, pending the appearanceof the memoirs
of the key actors and the eventual availability of archival
material, it seems difficult to anticipate further major
revelations.
Against such a background,this book is presentedas a work
of synthesisdesignedto pay dueregardto varying viewpoints,to
correct existing misconceptions,to identify difficulties and
opportunities,and to encouragereadersto look againat a long-
standingproblem. Although an attempthas beenmadeto offer
balancedcoverageof divergentattitudes,it doestend neverthe-
lessto representa British interpretation.The chief emphasishas
been placed upon the nature and developmentof the dispute
until the presentday, while focusing also upon options for a
settlement.The 1982war, albeit the major eventin the history of
the disputeand discussedin severalchapters,is not coveredin
detail, sincethis enablesmore attentionto be devotedto aspects
often ignored by previouswriters, including post-wardevelop-
ments.In any case,the war hasbeenfully coveredalready,while
the Antarctic dimension was analysedin my book The Inter-
national Politics of Antarctica (1986).
Historicru and contemporaryresearchwas conductednot only
in Britain but also overseas,including Argentina, Australia,
Canada,France,New Zealandand the USA, with the help of
grants from the Nuffield Foundation,the Leverhulme Trust,

Introduction
Theseexchangesreflectedthe Anglo-Argentinedisputeconcern-
ing sovereignty over the Falkland Ishinds/lslas Malvinas,
controlledby Britain since 1833 but claimed,togetherwith their
territorial waters, by Argentina. The Shackleton's captain
turned a Nelsonianblind eye towardsthe demandsto make for
the Argentineport of Ushuaia,in spiteof further pressurewhen
an Argentine Neptuneaircraft flew over at mast height and the
Storni fired severalshotsacrosshis ship'sbows. The Shackleton
remained on coursefor Port Stanley, the capital of the Falk-
lands, still shadowedand harassedby the Storni, which turned
away only six miles from the islands.
At the time, the Shackletonaffair, which prompted strong
British protests,provedthe mostseriousconfrontationyet in the
long-standing Falklands dispute, particularly as it occurred
during a period characterisedby both Argentinedomesticinsta-
bility and difficult Anglo-Argentine relations in general. The

1 April - UN Security Council calls for restraint and the non-use of force
2 April - Argentine landings; British despatch of the task force; the passage of
UN resolution 502 [for the cessation of hostilities, withdrawal of forces,
pacific solution!.
Mediation efforts
1} Haig Mission, 7-2fJ April - for an accommodation based on resolution 502.
Britain promised 'serious consideration', but Argentina rejected the
proposals. After 30 April, the USA supported Britain in the war.
2} Peruvian Peace Proposals, 1-6 May - a re-packaging of (1) by the Peruvian
President ['Haig in a poncho'], but rejected by Argentina [6 May).
3} UN Secretary-General, 2-21 May - attempt to find common ground, but on
21 May reported his failure [date of British landings).
4} UN Resolution 505, 26 May - this reaffirmed resolution 502 for renewed
efforts by the Secretary-General, but hostilities continued.
Common elements
All proposals were characterised by a ceasefire, linked to the mutual withdrawal
of forces and third party verification; interim administration [e.g. by the UN);
and a framework for negotiations to settle the dispute.
