Abstract

During the Cold War (1947-1991), Mexico was the meeting point where alliances were made, strategies were designed and coordinated to combat communism in the Latin American region. In the first decades of the Cold War, the anticommunist alliances that were forged from Mexico had an exclusively propaganda character to destabilize "communist governments" in the region, but at the beginning of the seventies, the Mexican anticommunists moved to operational strategies combating communism and participated in the creation and direction of the Latin American Anticommunist Confederation to, in his own words, "point out and disappear the Marxist threat in Latin America."
