Overview

Estados Unidos invadió Panamá en 1989 y el mundo entero tuvo algo que decir.

Las opiniones de entonces reflejaban juicios apresurados sobre las dos noticias más relevantes: un país ocupado y la caída del dictador Manuel Antonio Noriega, aquel exjefe de inteligencia y fiable colaborador de la CIA que resultó más listo y goloso de lo que los norteamericanos esperaban.

Las multitudinarias protestas ciudadanas contra la dictadura, seguidas por una sangrienta invasión estadounidense, representan la etapa más dolorosa, cruenta y humillante de la historia de esta nación. Los panameños no la han olvidado, aunque la conocen fragmentada, recuerdan incidentes aislados o anécdotas puntuales. El tiempo ha hecho que queden más dudas que respuestas. Imperdonable sería obviarla.

Historia rigurosamente documentada es la que Fernando Berguido nos ofrece en El colapso de Panamá. La historia de la invasión y del fin de la dictadura. Han pasado ya treinta y cinco años de aquellos acontecimientos, y hasta ahora no se había abordado el periodo comprendido entre 1984 y 1989 de forma tan completa y fluida, con entrevistas inéditas a sus protagonistas, relatos desconocidos y documentos confidenciales que ven la luz por primera vez. Puede que quienes vivieron y sufrieron aquellos años descubran hechos que les sorprendan; los más jóvenes encontrarán en esta crónica, que a menudo parece sacada de la más pura ficción, las raíces de su pasado y claves que les ayuden a entender el presente.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
 
The United States invaded Panama in 1989, and the whole world had something to say about it.

Opinions at the time reflected a rush to judgement about the two biggest news stories: the occupation of a country and the fall of dictator Manuel Antonio Noriega, the one-time head of intelligence and CIA informant who turned out to be shrewder and greedier than the US bargained for.
 
The mass protests against the dictatorship, followed by the bloody US invasion, were the most painful, brutal and humiliating episodes in Panama’s history. Its citizens have not forgotten what happened, although their accounts are fragmented and revolve around isolated incidents. Time has brought more questions than answers, but forgetting would be unforgivable.  
 
To fill the gap, Fernando Berguido offers us this meticulously documented history of the invasion and the end of the dictatorship. In the thirty-five years since these events, no one has produced such a complete and fluid account of the period between 1984 and 1989, with never-before-published interviews, reports and confidential documents revealed here for the first time. In this review of facts that are often stranger than fiction, those who suffered through those years may discover elements that will surprise them, while younger generations will uncover their country’s past and the keys for understanding its present.
