War and Conflict in the 1980's: The Creation of Present Geopolitical Landscape - Latin America

(Taught in Splash Spring 2015)

The last decade of the Cold War was the "hottest" and most violent. Proxy conflicts, civil wars, and police actions defined the 1980's. In this class, we will observe and analyze these conflicts through a Cold War framework and the lens of neocolonialism to understand how these wars created the modern geopolitical landscape in Latin America. One class of a three-part series. It is recommended but not necessary to take all three.
