Abstract

The present document is partly an autobiographical account, and partly an analysis of some details related to the negotiations that took place between the Republic of Chile and Argentina as a result of the litigation of the Continental Ice and the heterodox paths of diplomacy to articulate positions, reveal data and obtain public and political support. In such scenario, the author is located at the beginning as a key actor to "put an end to the long history of territorial disagreements between Argentina and Chile" playing a particular role in the dissemination of "qualified" documents, but stripping political mechanisms, quarrels personal, mediatic and legal artifices as fundamental parts of the swings of diplomacy.
