This book was released on 2021-10-28 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military conflicts and dictatorships in Latin America are the main consequences of the increasingly autonomous role of the armed forces in the region, asserts noted scholar Augusto Varas, and international factors related to the expansion of weapon industries in the North and the increasing flow of financial resources to Latin America are accelerating the arms race. Varas discusses the historical function of the armed forces in local politics, the new ideology of the "national security doctrine," and the process of conflict perception by the Latin American military. He also analyzes the inevitable relations between the arms race and the political role of the region's armed institutions. Using Chile as an example, he places these factors in context and illustrates how political crisis can escalate into a regional arms race. He then concludes with a discussion of the links between prospects for democracy in the region and demilitarization and disarmament.

Book excerpt: Latin America is experiencing unprecedented peace and stability because democracy bas replaced the authoritarian regimes of the past. The Clinton Administration decided in 1997 to lift the arm sales ban to Latin America after a twenty-year moratorium. This recent change in U.S. arm sales policy bas renewed a growing concern, among critics, that an influx of U.S. weapons to the region will lead to an arms race. This thesis argues that an arms race is not occurring in Latin America today. Three possible explanations will be explored to explain the presence or absence of arms races in Latin America, they are: democratic peace and complex interdependence, economic determinants of defense expenditures, and U.S. arms sales policy. Two traditional rival dyads of Brazil/Argentina and Peru/Ecuador will be applied to theoretical bases for international arms races as well as U.S. foreign policy to provide explanatory support. The major conclusion of this thesis is that U.S. foreign policy neither supports nor prevents arms races and economic determinants of defense expenditures offer mix results at best. The best possible explanation to why an arms race is not occurring in Latin America today is the presence of% democratic peace and complex interdependence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin America has participated in the global surge of arms transfers, seeking moderately advanced weapons from U.S. and European suppliers. Yet it remains a lightly armed region compared to the world at large. This paper discusses pros and cons of arms transfers--that they increase prospects for local border conflicts, and strengthen dictatorships that violate human rights; yet U.S. interests require some preemptive selling. In particular, the authors challenge the expectation that arms transfers lead to political influence and leverage. Also discussed are restrictive U.S. policies towards arms transfers that have cost the United States political goodwill, and Latin American military geopolitical views emphasizing the need for developing economic infrastructures and pursuing diplomatic initiatives rather than an arms buildup to protect national security. A unique contribution of this paper is the hypothesis that prestigious weapons are more significant for their diplomatic symbolism than for their military capability in affecting relations between Latin American neighbors.
