520 _aThe Tupamaro guerrilla’s role and actions in the democratic and liberal context of the 1960s are part of recurrent explanations of the 1973 Uruguay coup. In public debates, the military and civilian right wing that participated in the dictatorship held the Tupamaros responsible for the chaos and threats to the institutions that the country went through, a situation that could only result in authoritarianism. Some scholars maintained that the Tupamaros’ disloyal attitudes hurt the legitimacy of the democratic system and thus contributed to the coup while others only saw in the emergence of the Tupamaros’ national liberation movement a consequence of the political and economic crisis that the country experienced. Looking at the Tupamaro movement’s trajectory (birth, development, failure), this article assesses the various interpretations of the emergence of this armed group and its effect on the coup.
