Introduction : guerrillas and comandantes -- Dictators and civil wars -- Genesis of a guerrilla generation -- Inside the guerrilla -- Utopia and dystopia, Nicaragua -- Negotiations, peace and post-War reintegration -- Legacies and ambivalences -- Appendices.
Three parallel wars were fought in the latter half of the 20th century in El Salvador, Guatemala and Nicaragua. These wars were long and brutal, dividing international opinion sharply between US support for dictatorial regimes and the USSR's sponsorship of guerilla fighters. This book examines this topic.
