Many treatments of the twentieth-century Latin American left assume
a movement populated mainly by affluent urban youth whose naive
dreams of revolution collapsed under the weight of their own
elitism, racism, sexism, and sectarian dogmas. However, this book
demonstrates that the history of the left was much more diverse.
Many leftists struggled against capitalism and empire while also
confronting racism, patriarchy, and authoritarianism. The left's
ideology and practice were often shaped by leftists from
marginalized populations, from Bolivian indigenous communities in
the 1920s to the revolutionary women of El Salvador's guerrilla
movements in the 1980s. Through ten historical case studies of ten
different countries, Making the Revolution highlights some of the
most important research on the Latin American left by leading
senior and up-and-coming scholars, offering a needed corrective and
valuable contribution to modern Latin American history, politics,
and sociology.
