This book provides both a historical introduction and a comparative
analysis of the five most important guerrilla movements in the
Caribbean Basin between 1959 and the 1990s, including Guatemala, El
Salvador, Nicaragua, Colombia, and Puerto Rico. The authors argue
that the Cold War shaped and fueled the structure, tactics, and
ideologies of the diverse movements taking place for the
revolutionary cause, and address the particular impact that the
Cuban Revolution had on the region. The first chapter of Caribbean
Revolutions provides an introduction to the Cuban Revolution, the
Cold War, and Marxist thought. Succeeding chapters analyze each
case study individually and also provide discussions on the current
political situation for all of the organizations covered in the
book that remain active. With lists of suggested reading and extra
resources in each chapter, this is written as an accessible course
book for students of Latin American history and politics.
