PINEYRO, José Luis. Armed forces and rural contraguerrilla in México: past and present. Nueva antropol [online]. 2005, vol.20, n.65, pp.75-92. ISSN 0185-0636.
This paper has four sections. The first is a brief outline of the international situation during the cold war of the sixties and seventies and the strategic anti-communist's point of view of the American Government. The second section analyses the organization and armament of the Mexican Armed Forces and the changing military relations with the U.S.A., both related with the explosive regional sociopolitic environment of the two decades mentioned above. In the third part of the article there is a brief strategic panorama of the post-cold war and certain changes in the Mexican Armed Forces, specially since the indian insurrection of the Zapatist Army of National Liberation in 1994. The last part deals with the various characterisitcs of the rural guerrilla from the sixties to the end of the XX century, as well as the anti-guerrilla warfare of the Mexican Government.
