In 1932 Bolivia and Paraguay went to war over the Chaco region in
South America. The war lasted three years and approximately 52,000
Bolivians and Paraguayans died. Moving beyond the battlefields of
the Chaco War, this volume highlights the forgotten narratives of
the war. Studying the environmental, ethnic, and social realities
of the war in both Bolivia and Paraguay, the contributors examine
the conflict that took place between 1932 and 1936 and explore its
relationship with and impact on nationalism, activism and
modernity. Beginning with an overview of the war, the book goes on
to explore many new approaches to the conflict, and the
contributors address topics such as the environmental challenges
faced by the forces involved, the role of indigenous peoples, the
impact of oil nationalism and the conflict's aftermath. This is a
volume that will be of interest to anyone working on modern Latin
America and the relationship between war and society.
