Stimmen zu »The Falklands/Malvinas War in the South Atlantic«
‘The War of the South Atlantic (1982) continues to resonate in multiple ways as a historical watershed of recognized national and international scope, consequences and projections. This impeccable and rigorous academic research offers new perspectives to study and understand that conflict and its significance in the regional and global historical context.’
-Fabián Bosoer, political scientist, editor-chef/journalist of Clarín, Autor of Malvinas, Capítulo Final: Guerra y diplomacia en la Argentina (1940-1982)
‘While the Falklands War infused concepts of British identity in the 1980s and beyond, this volume adds not only depth but breadth to Argentine planning and decision. This is a welcome, and much needed, volume that adds rich depth to understanding critical aspects of the war itself and the legacy it has had upon Anglo-Argentine relations since 1982.’
-Dr. Martin Robson, University of Exeter
‘This book presents a multifaceted and multidisciplinary vision of the Malvinas War from historical, sociological, international relations, and political science lenses. An important contribution to the knowledge and understanding of this important historical event and its consequences.’
-Professor José Manuel Ugarte, University of Buenos Aires
