Censorship in Argentina

Censorship in Argentina has a complex history, particularly during the military dictatorship from 1976 to 1983, when the government suppressed dissent and controlled media to maintain power. This involved banning books, censoring news, and erasing voices opposing the regime. Even after the return to democracy, concerns about censorship have persisted, especially regarding government control over media, internet regulation, and the treatment of journalists. Today, while freedom of expression is constitutionally protected, debates continue over media ownership, political influence, and the balance between regulation and free speech.
