Prior to the 1980s Honduras was an obscure backwater, of little
public or policy concern in the United States. With the advent of
the Reagan administration, however, Hondurans found themselves at
the center of the US-Central American imbroglio, a launching pad
for the administration's contra war against the Sandinista
government in Nicaragua and for counterinsurgency operations
against guerrillas in El Salvador. Placing events in the context of
Honduran history, the authors provide penetrating insights into the
causes of revolution in Central America and the sources of
stability that enabled Honduras to escape the civil strife that
consumed its neighbors. At the same time, the work offers a
fascinating account of Honduran domestic politics and of the
personalities, motives, and maneuvers of policymakers on both sides
of the U.S.-Honduras relationship-too often a tale of intrigue,
violence, and corruption.
