| description | This article studies some historical and current aspects that determine the conception of military intelligence in South America. To do that, it's consider the influence of the classic doctrinal elements of military thought, the existence of an eventual change of paradigm in the understanding of the conflictive processes and in the own dimensions of the intelligence, and the incorporation of other elements that would result in the adoption of other analytical parameters for the aforementioned subject. This conduces to the approach of some challenges that the region maintains in military intelligence tasks, always considering a division between the maintenance of a classic conception of the conflict and the adoption of new tendencies in the field of war. It is concluded that despite the effort to maintain the classic notions of war applied to military intelligence, the countries of the region must incorporate other thought schemes, which are associated with a more complex understanding of the conflicting phenomena that affect both the State as to societies, not as a subsidiary function but as a complement to the one they traditionally execute.

El artículo aborda algunos de los aspectos, tanto históricos como actuales, que determinan la concepción de la inteligencia militar en América del Sur. Para lo anterior, se toman en cuenta la influencia de los elementos doctrinarios clásicos del pensamiento militar, la existencia de un eventual cambio de paradigma en la comprensión de los procesos conflictivos y en las propias dimensiones de la inteligencia, y la incorporación de otros elementos que derivarían en la adopción de otros parámetros analíticos para la temática señalada. Lo anterior da paso para el planteamiento de algunos desafíos que la región mantiene en labores de inteligencia militar, siempre considerando una división entre la mantención de una concepción clásica del conflicto, y la adopción de nuevas tendencias en el campo de la guerra. Se concluye que pese al esfuerzo de mantener las nociones clásicas de la guerra aplicadas a la inteligencia militar, los países de la región deben incorporar otros esquemas de pensamiento, lo que se asocian a una comprensión más compleja de los fenómenos conflictivos que afectan tanto al Estado como a las sociedades, pero no como una función subsidiaria, sino que complementaria a la que tradicionalmente ejecutan.
