After decades of neglect, interest in the political significance of Latin American Catholicism increased sharply in the late 1960s when it began to appear that the Church might have unimagined potential for promoting social change, particularly in a continent plagued by social upheaval and political instability (Drekonja, 1971: 59-65). In both word and deed, the postconciliar Church manifested a changing social orientation which entailed open involvement in political issues on behalf of the poor. In fact, by August 1968 and the convening of the Council of Latin American Bishops (CELAM) in Medellín, Colombia, the Church seemed to be changing its social and political attitudes so profoundly that reports of a revolutionary Church began to accompany discussions of the political situation in Latin America. Since Medellín, an important literature has evolved from efforts to understand this change in Latin American Catholicism.

In Latin Amer there are 3 types of country in which the group of professional army officers plays 3 distinct types of pol'al role. Representing the 2 extremes & an approximate mid-point of a spectrum along which the 20 republics of Latin Amer can be placed, these 3 types are: (1) the countries in which the military always plays a pol'al role, often as the agent of despotism; (2) at the other extreme, those democracies which operate so well that the military never, or almost never, plays a pol'al role, & (3) those countries where the military occasionally plays a pol'al role, operating Ply however in silent but effective support of constitutional & democratic principles. The sociol'al & other military & non-military characteristics of the countries comprising each of these 3 types reveal, when analysed, certain definite similarities which offer both clues to the reasons underlying the country's pol'al experience, & suggestions as to possible courses of action to improve that experience.
