The Urban Guerrilla in Latin America: A Select Bibliography (1974)
The primary emphasis in this article is on the military and political aspects of urban insurgency. Research efforts have sought to identify those materials which may provide a definitive view of the political goals and military strategy/tactics of the various Latin American urban guerrilla groups. Data relating solely to internal ideological disputes within these organizations were examined but not considered for bibliographic listing unless the dispute resulted in a change in the strategy, tactics, or political outlook of the guerrilla group itself. With these parameters in mind, then, it is hoped that this bibliographic effort may encourage a more careful exploration of the urban guerrilla phenomenon and the development of those in-depth studies and analyses of the various aspects of this subject which are now so conspicuous by their absence.
