Leatherette covers. "Since the end of the Second World War every Latin American country except Mexico has experienced at least one coup d'etat, as have many countries in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and even Europe. What triggers a coup? By what criteria does the military judge government performance? What are the structural causes of the crises to which the military reacts? How do personal characteristics and beliefs affect the outcomes?"
