Annotation: " The deepest, most nuanced history of the complex tapestry that, superficially, is called the South American right. . . . Scholars from all language and national backgrounds should use it as the point of departure for future research. . . . This splendid, highly learned book will be the standard text for a decade at least." -- American Historical Review

Publisher Description:
This is the first book explicitly to compare extreme right-wing organizations, ideas, and actions in different national settings in Latin America. It shows how extreme rightist class and gender composition, motives, programs, and activities varied over time and between countries. It concludes by demonstrating the importance of the analysis for understanding present conditions.
