- Double-weighted statement
- This book of 90,000 words draws on a range of archival, printed, and film primary source material collected between 2008 and 2014. It fuses the methods of American Studies and the history of social movements to provide the first cultural history of the anti-war and solidarity movements centred on opposing United States intervention in Nicaragua, El Salvador and Honduras during the 1980s. Apart from the overall originality of this approach, each of the book’s six chapters contains cutting-edge research on the work of various activists, intellectuals, journalists, and filmmakers.
