Summary Interviewing former Sandinista officials, scouring Nicaragua's national archives, and studying facts on the ground, Luciano Baracco identifies the origins of Nicaragua's Sandinista Revolution in terms of the failure of nineteenth-century liberal regimes to complete the task of constructing Nicaragua as a culturally and historically distinct, sovereign, national entity.
