Argentina: In the Hour of the Furnaces. 1975. 105 pages.

NACLA began in 1966 and quickly became one of the most important research organizations to emerge out of the U.S. student movement. Through the mid-seventies their publications concentrated on the role of U.S. corporations and foreign policy in Latin America, with special emphasis on U.S. universities, development policy, police training, and CIA covert activities. Reports were well-researched, with more facts than analysis.

This report covers Argentina in the twentieth century, with special emphasis on the role of imperialism in the economy. U.S. corporations and AIFLD are discussed along with Peronism and other socialist movements. One section analyzes the U.S. embassy and identifies several CIA officers.
