The Argentine Revolution (Spanish: Revolución Argentina) is the self-styled name of the civil-military dictatorship that overthrew the constitutional president Arturo Illia through a coup d'état on June 28, 1966, and ruled the country until May 25, 1973. The dictatorship did not present itself as a "provisional government" (as all the previous coups had done in Argentina), but rather sought to establish itself as a new permanent dictatorial system later associated with the concept of the bureaucratic-authoritarian State.
