	The Argentine Seizure Of The Malvinas [Falkland] Islands: History and Diplomacy
		Out of this was born the Falkland Islands Emergency Committee and what later was termed the "Falklands lobby."(6) This lobby dedicated itself to the prevention of any compromise of British sovereignty over the Islands.(7) The influence wielded by the Falklands lobby in Parliament became evident in March 1968.
		Shackleton concluded that the Islands' economy was declining and recommended establishment of new economic ties between Argentina and the Islanders.(13) This opened the door for yet another British diplomat, Ted Rowlands, to negotiate with the Islanders in February 1977.
		During the next two years of negotiations new proposals were discussed such as joint sovereignty and administration of the Islands (referred to as the condominium concept) and leasing of the Islands for a predetermined number of years (the leaseback concept).(15) All such proposals were attacked by the Falklands lobby and the British press.
