ISBN: 978-1-155587-521-3
This unusual analysis of the Falkland/Malvinas dispute relies almost entirely on British sources to refute British claims to the islands.

Oliveri López draws on official government documents, speeches, works of scholarship, and statements by residents of the islands themselves to substantiate his conclusion of "admission" by the U.K. of Argentine sovereignty over the Malvinas. Presenting his own view of the interests of the southern archipelagoes, he also explores various options for future negotiations regarding the region.

A career diplomat, Angel Oliveri López joined the Argentine Foreign Service in 1956. In 1973-1978 he served as minister plenipotentiary in the Permanent Mission of Argentina to the United Nations, and in 1978-1981 he headed the Antarctica and Malvinas section of the Argentine foreign ministry. He has also served as Ambassador to Czechoslovakia, undersecretary of international economic negotiations, and permanent representative to the Latin America Association for Integration (ALADI). Ambassador Oliveri López is author of Economic Integration and International Law.
