Thirty years after the Argentinian invasion of the Falkland
Islands, the war remains a source of continued debate and analysis
for politicians, historians and military strategists. Not only did
the conflict provide a fascinating example of modern expeditionary
warfare, but it also brought to the fore numerous questions
regarding international law, sovereignty, the inheritance of
colonialism, the influence of history on national policy and the
use of military force for domestic political uses. As the essays in
this collection show, the numerous facets of the Falklands War
remain current today and have ramifications far beyond the South
Atlantic. Covering issues ranging from military strategy to
Anglo-American relations, international reactions and international
law to media coverage, the volume provides an important overview of
some of the complex issues involved, and offers a better
understanding of this conflict and of the tensions which still
exist today between London and Buenos Aires. Of interest to
scholars of history, politics, international relations and defence
studies, the volume provides a timely and forthright examination of
a short but bloody episode of a kind that is likely to be seen with
increasing frequency, as nations lay competing claims to disputed
territories around the globe.
