Abstract This article examines the conditions that led the Argentine armed group Montoneros to establish a nursery in Cuba, in 1979, to care for the children of exiled members who had decided to return to the country to fight against a dictatorial regime characterised by the crime of enforced disappearance and supported by continental and global alliances. The analysis focuses on the dilemmas children posed for militants and the organisation and how those concerns were in part addressed by setting up a facility to care for the children. The article then considers how that childcare effort by the Montoneros connected with Cuba's internationalist and refugee policies and with continental struggles, as well as looking at how the children involved experienced it. This reconstruction offers a new approach to thinking about political conflicts in the heated Cold War scenario in Latin America, through the lens of children's history and by exploring how love and politics are intertwined.

diers impregnated women, wilfully and violently; are they proud of their own actions, ashamed, or curious and yearning to know and perhaps even father their potential offspring? What are the intergenerational ripples of perpetrating rape and how will they play out in the lives and politics of those concerned? Is there space for dialogue and reflection between those who often continue to live in close proximity of each other? What might the role of writing and ethnographic reflection be in these conversations? Legacies of War provides deep reflection and raises difficult questions. As such, this is an important book for students of the Andes, global gender justice, and (post-)conflict violence and reconciliation. In addition, it is a very well-written journey through the possibilities and value of ethnographic work and scholarship.

mountains, in the cities the university students fulfilled a prominent mission. They sought urban communities’ sympathy with the revolutionary process through the knowledge they had acquired in their professional training, which they adapted to fit the political context of their country. Rueda’s book transcends the student scenario. Her history resembles a carefully prepared theatrical staging, in which her actors progressively take the floor and position themselves in a leading role, despite walking on a stage of violence and political repression. This scene presents the student movement as a collective actor, in which women and men alike used their youth to oppose their dictators for four decades. Those interested in Students of Revolution will not just find the history of a single country. Instead, Rueda’s book also reflects the influence of the United States, thus offering a complete history of the Cold War− a history that does not focus on a generation of young people united in a revolution, but on a culture of youthful dissidence, inherited over four decades and which gave life to the last revolutionary process of the Cold War in a fervent territory like Central America.
