Falklands/Malvinas 1982 (Wars And Battles Of The World)

After many decades from the 1982 war between Britain and Argentina over possession of the Falklands/Malvinas islands in the South Atlantic Ocean, this book allows for a new and rounded reading of the causes, course, and consequences of the war. It provides a comprehensive overview of the Falkland/Malvinas War by integrating the military history of the conflict with the diplomatic, political, social and cultural aspects of the conflict. Including a substantial body of advocacy, chronicle, narrative, and analysis, the volume draws upon an extensive range of published sources, in English and Spanish, primary sources from both sides and unpublished testimonies. The essays in the book written by Argentinian and Australian historians and scholars discuss themes such as the background to the war; the offensive campaign for the Islands; the English and Argentine experience and memories of the war from the perspective of the Islanders. Part of the Wars and Battles of the World series, this book will be an essential read for the scholars and researchers of military history, British history, Latin American history, defence and strategic studies, geopolitics, and modern history.
