Seis Episodios de la Educación Chilena, 1920 - 1965
Institutional reform in nation-states in formation is essentially the outcome of partisan debate and negotiation involving individuals, parties, coalitions, and interest groups. Educational reform programs are inseparable from political struggles. They are far more than academic or intellectual exercises in pedagogical theory and practice. Inextricable from foreign influences, nationalist tradition, church-state issues, and rank opportunism, even…

Wars of Latin America, 1899 - 1941
Latin America’s Wars. Vol. 2, The Age of the Professional Soldier, 1900–2001
It is a popular assumption that wars (at least international ones) are rare in Latin America and that professional soldiers (at least officers) spend more time playing at politics than they do making war. This solid companion volume to Latin America’s Wars: The Age of the Caudillos, 1791–1899 makes two major points convincingly. First, Scheina asserts, in the past century, armed conflict was principally a domestic phenomenon: interclass and intra…

Guardians of the Nation? Economists, Generals, and Economic Reform in Latin America (review)
The Grand Illusion
This book makes one think the adage “military history is to history what military music is to music” still has substance after all. Over the years too much military history in monographic form has failed to encourage sophisticated linkages with political and social history. Impressive in style and substance, The Grand Illusion stops short of pursuing significant opportunities to place an important subject within the historical and cultural perspe…

“The interpretation of our reality through patterns not our own serves only to make us more unknown, ever less free, ever more solitary.” Gabriel García Márquez, Nobel Lecture, 1982 In the second half of this century, we have been told, the Latin American novel came of age. Authors no longer felt constrained to subject indigenous contents to alien forms. Instead contents suggested forms truly representative of societies, polities, and cultures in…

One Year in the Life of Augusto Pinochet
As usual the new year was ushered in by the words of the President, broadcast to the nation via radio and television . They were the same words Chileans had heard for the past decade. The regime would not give way in its campaign to create a new Chile, to bar forever a resurgence of the left, to purify democracy of its inherent weaknesses, to structure the government so that politiquería never again would menace Chileans, to strengthen the econom…

Military Professionalism and Professional Militarism in Brazil, 1870-1970
Since 1964 Brazil has been governed by successive regimes dominated by the armed forces and presided over by army generals. The men in charge of Brazil's destiny are professional officers, and like their counterparts in the neighboring Spanish American states they conceive of their governance as an obligation as much as a privilege, if not more. The professional officer in Latin America today is as far removed from his nineteenth century counterp…

Emil Körner and the Prussianization of the Chilean Army
IN 1885 the Chilean government appointed Captain Emil K6rner of the Imperial German Army to train its officers. When K6rner arrived in Chile he found an experienced officer corps composed of veterans from the War of the Pacific and the Indian campaigns in Araucania. They were men who took pride in being the heirs of Bernardo O'Higgins and Manuel Bulnes, but they had little experience in the rigors of the classroom. Chile wanted a modern professio…

New Thoughts on Military Intervention in Latin American Politics
Every state must maintain constant control of its own development, in order to influence opportunely any situation affecting its growth. Its cultural objectives and its civilization, the increase in national power by way of augmenting the capacity of its citizens, and permanent regard for national security are the bases for harmonious progress of the state; in planning its growth it must be clearly established what is to be accomplished, always c…
Military Rule in Chile
NvT EARLY A CENTURY of nonparticipation by the military in Chilean politics came to an end on September 5, 1924, as army officers cast tradition aside to deliberate politics openly, and a general was named minister of the interior. Disturbed by the inability of politicians to cope with inflation, unemployment, and other pressing issues, and anxious for legislation to improve their own conditions, junior army officers demanded action. When their d…

Latin American Militarylore
This essay deals with the lore of the military profession in Latin America in two ways. First, it presents a general introduction to militarylore, its applications to the study of military-civilian relations and its limitations as a research tool. Second, it presents an application (with obvious limitations) of concepts discussed in part I to a case study, part II: the lore of the Chilean Army officer class in the twentieth century. I am convince…

A Latin American State within the State
Political orientation and motivation of Chilean army officers in the twentieth century has generally been confined to the 1924-1932 period. During those eight years the military functioned as a politically deliberative body in four distinct ways. First, in September 1924 the actions of junior and middle-grade officers caused President Arturo Alessandri Palma to resign his office, whereupon a junta composed of two generals and an admiral assumed e…

The Latin American Military Establishment
Historians from the United States have studied the Latin American military using two principal approaches: in broad, topical studies dealing with the socio-political role of the military, i.e. armies, from colonial times to the present and in monographic works dealing thematically with the political role of the military in a specific country during a specific time. Neither approach boasts a defintive work. Certainly not the former, for the role o…

Notes on the “Junta Phenomenon” and the “Military Regime” In Latin America With Special Reference to Peru, 1968-1972
“Long before other organs of the state or private enterprise, the Army began to exercise effective influence on the progress of modernization and development of the country.” Edgardo Mercado Jarrín, 1964 “What is the principal objective of the national census?” the uniformed colonels asked. From groups of primary and secondary school-teachers assembled for orientation purposes in preparation for Peru's first complete census in decades, that quest…
