SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
During the Cold War, American conservatives labored to build an anticommunist international. As they did so, they joined a transnational network of right-wing organizations that supported anticommunist guerrillas in Latin America, Asia, and Africa from the 1950s through the 1980s. This dissertation tells that story. Drawing upon archival sources from four continents, it argues that American conservatives and their allies abroad embraced revolutionary violence in the hopes of fighting communism and extending the reach of free-market capitalism. These efforts wreaked havoc in the global south while also building arguments, networks, and practices that helped organize conservative foreign policies in the 1980s and afterwards.
