Why people recommend it
Predatory States by J. Patrice McSherry is an academic study examining Operation Condor and covert warfare across Latin America. Robert Evans recommended the book on Behind the Bastards, praising it as an informative resource written by a political science professor. Evans and co-host Christopher Wong drew upon the book across multiple episodes to explain how anti-communist military regimes coordinated across borders. Evans cited the text to describe how Latin American intelligence officials gathered to share methods for targeting communists, laying the groundwork for Operation Condor, and noted the role of the School of the Americas in facilitating covert operations. Christopher Wong utilized Predatory States to trace the expansion of the Condor system into Central America, highlighting a 1980 World Anti-Communist League meeting in Buenos Aires as a defining export event. Wong also cited the book for specific intelligence details, such as the involvement of Argentine commander General Guillermo Suárez Mason and battalion 601 in establishing an extraterritorial task force to carry out secret operations abroad.
