Dictatorship in South America explores the Latin American experience of military dictatorship during this era, depicting citizens' relationship with the brutal juntas that cycled in and out of power. Focusing on the experiences of Brazil, Chile, and Argentina, Dictatorship in South America delves into the wider political aftermath of the Cuban Revolution, an event that captured the minds of the public and pushed political regimes toward greater conservatism. DaÌvila argues that the radical utopian dreams of students and workers in the aftermath of the Cuban Revolution, fueled in later years by events in 1960s United States and Europe, were confronted by equally radical right-wing projects realized by the armed forces in Brazil, Chile and Argentina. Yet behind the appearance of order and progress promoted by the generals, whose unapologetic capitalism disguised unsustainable capital flight and exploitation, lay internal disorder, violence, and the systematic abuse of human rights: the 'disappeared' were a real social group, albeit defined by their absence and presumed deaths. This history of three countries' experience with dictatorship, economic crisis and grassroots re-democratization brings a new perspective to the study of modern Latin American history." -- Publisher's description. 651 0 $a South America $x Politics and government $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Dictatorship $z South America $v Case studies. 651 0 $a Brazil $x Politics and government $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Argentina $x Politics and government $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Chile $x Politics and government $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Dictatorship $z Brazil $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Dictatorship $z Argentina $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Dictatorship $z Chile $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Cold War. 611 27 $a Cold War (1945-1989) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01754978 650 7 $a Dictatorship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00892878 650 7 $a Political science. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069781 651 7 $a Argentina. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205614 651 7 $a Brazil. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206830 651 7 $a Chile. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205362 651 7 $a South America. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244515 648 7 $a 1900 - 1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423765 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Viewpoints/puntos de vista. 941 $a 5 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20240724071641.0 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214040011.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230405011433.0 952 $l PMAX975 $d 20191119044457.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20140917011236.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EDA31C52098911E49E3D8DEDDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IOMInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
