Not only is this a timely volume, but it is also the first project of its kind. As such, it promises to make a hugely important contribution to the fields of Latin American Studies and African Studies, as well as to our understanding of revolutions and the processes of democratization."--Jacket UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0714/2007013674.html UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0714/2007013674-b.html ER -
