In this chapter, Chasteen is using only a handful of examples among hundreds of important events that happened in Latin America during the period of the Cold War: he is not trying to be comprehensive, but instead showcasing the events he considers especially exemplary, useful, or telling.

1. Brazil (303-306)
2. the “Dirty War” (306-308)
3. Salvador Allende (309, 311)
4. “low-intensity conflict” (316)
5. the Somozas (316-317)
6. Óscar Romero (320)
7. El Mozote (321)
