This volume offers a comparative analysis of the role of the
military in Latin America in domestic politics and governance after
2000. Divided into four parts covering the entirety of Latin
America, the book argues that the Latin American military as
semi-autonomous political actors have not faded away since 2000 and
may even have been making a comeback in various countries. Each
part outlines scenarios which effectively frame the various
pathways taken to post-military democratic society. Part 1
critically examines textbook cases of political demilitarization in
the Southern Cone, Peru, and Costa Rica. Part 2 contrasts the role
of the military in the post-2000 politics of two regional powers:
Brazil and Mexico. Part 3 examines the political role of the
military facing 'violent pluralism' in Colombia and the Northern
triangle of Central America. Finally, Part 4 identifies country
cases in which the military have been instrumental in the rise,
sustenance, and occasional demise of left wing revolutionary
projects within Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua, and Bolivia. Latin
American Military and Politics in the Twenty-First Century will be
of interest to scholars, students and professionals in the fields
of Latin American history, international relations, military
studies and studies concerning democracy, political violence and
revolution in Latin America elsewhere.
