Resumen
This article examines the connections between the Armed Forces and the neo-liberal, orthodoxly monetarist "technicians", who took it upon themselves to lead the economy after the present authoritarian states were set up in Argentina and Chile. The author maintains that, unlike what is generally held, in addition to the actions tied directly to ·repression, the main guidelines of the governments of these countries are inspired by the ideologies of these "technicians"; rather than by conceptions stemming from the National Security. White the article also examines significant differences between the cases mentioned and the bureaucratic-authoritarian states which emerged in the 60's (Brazil and Argentina, 1966-1972, as well as the Peruvian "military populism", 1968-1975), it indicates that these differences occur both as a result of specific historic and structural characteristics, as because of the graveness of the social crises and the consequent perception of the threats which immediately preceded the respective coups. One of these differences is, precisely, the greater weight of such "technicians" within the governing alliance and the radical character of the economic and social policies they put into effect.
