Latin America is in the grip of a double challenge--coping with what may be the worst economic crisis since the 1930s and the huge problems of poverty and inequality this has produced, while simultaneously consolidating its democratic transition, trying to recover from the traumas of many years of authoritarian rule and state terror. This superb collection of original scholarship and historical and analytical overviews examines a subject that has received too little attention--the legacy of past conflict, violence and terror in all the most important countries of South and Central America. This volume is ideal for scholars concerned with Latin American society and politics generally, and civil-military relations, peace-building and good governance in particular.

Grand Eagle Retail

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Latin America is in the grip of a double challenge - coping with what may be the worst economic crisis since the 1930s while simultaneously consolidating its democratic transition. This collection explores the ongoing legacy of past conflict, violence and terror in all the most important countries of South and Central America and, in particular whether it could continue to thwart economic recovery, social justice and political consensus and stability. The introductory chapter looks at the various forms of violence in present-day Latin America, their underlying causes, and their implications for the reconstruction of civil society and consolidation of democratic governance. Part one examines the recent civil wars in southern Mexico, Central America and Peru, including a look at the extent to which ethnicity has shaped these conflicts. Part two discusses the historical, political and cultural dimensions of conflict and violence in specific national settings - Mexico, Argentina and Colombia. Finally, the book explores the prospects for an enduring transition from dictatorship - in Chile, Brazil, Mexico and Cuba. This collection explores the ongoing legacy of past conflict, violence and terror in selected countries of South and Central America and, in particular, whether it could continue to thwart economic recovery, social justice and political consensus and stability. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781856497664
