El Salvador 1989: The Two Jesuit Standards and the Final Offensive

This thesis, written by Ignacio Ochoa in the spring of 2003, incorporates first-hand testimony, primary sources and secondary historical documentation to discuss the sociopolitical significance of the November 16, 1989 massacre of six Jesuits and two civilians at the Universidad Centroamericana (UCA) in El Salvador. Ignacio argues that while the massacre was an attempt by the Salvadoran Armed Forces to debilitate the FMLN, the international outrage it provoked marked the beginning of the end for the unchecked power and legitimacy of the US-supported Salvadoran Armed Forces, and it became the driving force behind the Salvadoran peace process."
