Latin America@War

The Latin America@War series comprises studies of the militaries and conflicts in Central and South American and the Caribbean from the beginning of the twentieth century up to the present day.

Over the last 100 or more years, there have been numerous armed conflicts in Latin America, and Latin American militaries have been involved in armed conflicts in other parts of the world. While conventional wars between nation states have remained relatively rare, a large number of insurgencies, foreign military interventions, military mutinies, coups and other armed uprisings have erupted in various countries.

This series examines well known events involving Western powers such as the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Falklands/Malvinas War. However, much conflict in Latin America is virtually unknown to mainstream anglophone military history including the long-running border dispute between Ecuador and Peru, the large-scale armed rebellion of the Paulista War in Brazil in the 1930s, and small Cold War-era coups, insurgencies and uprisings that would be characterised by ‘dirty’ wars and opponents being ‘disappeared’.

The Latin America@War series offers in-depth studies of the military history of the region, focusing on military organisations, equipment, capabilities and intentions, strategy and tactics, and presents these in their geopolitical and socioeconomic context in order to explain the underlying reasons for each conflict. Wherever possible these studies draw on the sources and archives of the region and are written by authors with firsthand experience of the nations involved.

The Latin America@War series is richly illustrated with original photographs, maps of the relevant geographic areas and specific combat operations, and specially commissioned colour artworks showing the combatants, vehicles, aircraft and other equipment used in Latin America and provides unique and indispensable sources of reference.
