Political Development and Military Intervention in Latin America

Description	This chapter reviews the processes of political development and social mobilization with respect to the characteristic feature of Latin American politics, the coup d'etat and the establishment of a de facto military government. The categories of coups that were aborted, suppressed, or abandoned melt into each other and into a host of other non-coup phenomena so as to defy accounting. Officers of the armed forces are not dominated by a single political viewpoint but hold a variety of political orientations. The correlates of these political orientations in personal characteristics have not as yet been systematically evaluated and weighed for the Latin American military, along the lines of Morris Janowitz' The Professional Soldier. Once military elements have vetoed the popular leader and his party, moreover, the hostility between the two becomes self-perpetuating and self-reinforcing. Since those who participated in the original coup have reason to believe they will forfeit at least their careers, if the outlawed party should ever gain power.
