Carlisle, PA: U. S. Army War College, Strategic Studies Institute, 2002. Presumed first edition/first printing. Wraps. Very good. No dust jacket. Cover has slight wear and soiling.. vii, [1], 60 p. Endnotes. Feedback card laid in. This is one of the Shaping the Regional Security Environment in Latin America Special Series. From an on-line posting: "The author analyzes Colombia's problems and makes recommendations regarding what it will take to achieve stated U.S. and Colombian objectives in that crisis situation. She also examines the concomitant issue of "spillover" from the Colombian crisis into the rest of the Latin American region. The results and recommendations of this analysis go well beyond prescribing a simple military solution to the complex political-economic-social-moral-security issues of this 50-year-old war.
