A revised English version of this book, published by Ohio University in 1988 as Conservative Thought in Twentieth-Century Latin America: The Ideas of Laureano Gómez, offers a more strictly chronological analysis of the evolution of Gómez's thought. It also provides a more extended discussion of conservative thinkers in other Latin American countries than does the Spanish edition.
