The Legacy Of The Three Presidencies Of Arnulfo Arias Madrid, Sandra Blackman
The Legacy Of The Three Presidencies Of Arnulfo Arias Madrid, Sandra Blackman
Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
Arnulfo Arias Madrid colored the history of Panama with his eccentric, jingoistic, and often humorous escapades. His presidencies were brief, but provided a lasting influence on the country's political system.

Arias ostensibly based his party on long-term national goals, but once in off ice sought to advance his personal interests and to centralize power. In so doing he deprived. …
The Castillo De San Fernando De Omoa : The History Of A Fiasco, James L. Zackrison
The Castillo De San Fernando De Omoa : The History Of A Fiasco, James L. Zackrison
Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
The concept behind the fort of San Fernando de Omoa grew from the unrest caused by pirates along the coasts of Central America in the 17th and 18th centuries.

An Analysis Of The Six Military-Dominated Political Cycles In El Salvador Between 1931 And 1979, Thomas Ramon Rookard
Dissertations and Theses
A comparative study of the cycles of military-political power in El Salvador between 1931 and 1979 indicates that the country was convulsed six times by political struggle. A pattern emerged wherein the military asserted itself as maintainer of the status quo each time that repression of, or concession to, the masses threatened the economic and political balance.
