CASTRO ARCOS, Javier. Neomalthusianism, Cold War, and Evangelicals Transnational Networks in the War on Hungry, Chile (1960-1970). Secuencia [online]. 2021, n.111, e1948.  Epub 16-Nov-2021. ISSN 2395-8464.  https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i111.1948.

This paper explains unknown episodes in the history of the Latin American cold war. Specifically, the operations of USA religious diplomacy between the Chilean social networks and transnational evangelical networks, under the context of the war on hungry. The premise of promoting the leap to development in underdeveloped countries and of preventing breeding grounds for socialist revolutions in a significant decade for the cold war in Latin America, made neomalthusianism and family planning movements a reason for social, religious, and political mobilization for evangelical missionaries in Chile and Latin America. The work is based primarily on primary sources from the Harvard University Countway Library of Medicine, and on files and hearings of the United States Senate Committee on Population Crisis, as well as supplemented by press sources and secondary bibliography.

Palabras llave : cold war; neomalthusianism; Chile; religious diplomacy; war on hungry.
