Book Description: In this critical study of the thought of Augusto Cesar Sandino and his followers, Donald C. Hodges has discovered a coherent ideological thread and political program, which he succeeds in tracing to Mexican and Spanish sources. Sandino's strong religious inclination in combination with his anarchosyndicalist political ideology established him as a religious seer and moral reformer as well as a political thinker and is the prototype of the curious blend of Marxism and Christianity of the late twentieth-century Nicaraguan government, the Frente Sandinista de Liberación Nacional.

Latin America In The Era Of The Cuban Revolution
Author: Thomas C. Wright
Publisher: Greenwood
ISBN:
Size: 76.60 MB
Format: PDF, ePub
Category : Cuba
Languages : en
Pages : 236
View: 7184
Book Description: Thomas C. Wright describes and explains the extraordinary impact that the Cuban Revolution had on Latin America and on U.S.-Latin American relations during the past three decades. Wright integrates diverse and complex political events into a comprehensive and comprehensible whole--providing a broad perspective on this critical period in Latin American history. Wright does not use a country-by-country approach, but rather a unique synthesis of broadly defined trends and phases that affected significant numbers of Latin American countries and people. Among the currents examined are the destabilizing influence of fidelismo, the rise of rural and urban guerrilla warfare, the Alliance for Progress, the growth of U.S. military involvement in Latin America, and the rise of terrorist military regimes. Three country-specific topics--the military revolution in Peru, the Allende government in Chile, and the Sandinista struggle in Nicaragua--are examined separately due to their universal interest and their importance to the whole of Latin America. Successfully linking the most important Latin American political developments of three decades to the pervasive influence of Fidel Castro and his revolution, Wright presents 1990 as the final year in this coherent, discrete era that most Latin American historians agree began in 1959. This text will interest university and college classes on Latin American history, Latin American politics, and revolution and reform courses, as well as professional Latin Americanists in many specializations.

Book Description: The volume offers a rich synthesis of political science research on Latin America over the past 30 years and offers a wealth of information to anyone interested in the area--from the beginning student to the area specialist. . . . The volume is an impressive achievement and will not outdate soon. Library Journal (starred review) This handbook offers the reader a rich synthesis of the political science research on the Latin American region over the past thirty years. It reviews published books, articles, and government documents in addition to a few select doctoral dissertations. Sixteen contributors participated in the making of this volume, all of whom have lived and done field work in Latin America and the Caribbean and have studied and taught about Latin America. The starting date of 1960 was chosen because that year coincided with the rapid growth of research on Latin America, spurred by the Cuban Revolution and the Alliance for Progress. The handbook is divided into two main sections: comparative politics and international relations. Within each section are chapters on specific countries of interest or on general topics or areas. Appendixes (which include a selected bibliography and a listing of major research centers in Latin America and the Caribbean) and indexes follow the main body of the book. This book should be of great value to anyone interested in the history and methodology of political science research on Latin America and the Caribbean. Specialists from other areas of study will also find this volume's information invaluable. Beginning students of Latin American history and politics will find this work a comprehensive review of the field over the past three decades.

Book Description: Examining the broad process of religious change, the authors explore how that process interacted with the political struggles that culminated in the 1979 rebellion in Nicaragua.
