How the issues are typically labeled
FASOC issues are commonly identified using a Spanish convention: Año (year of publication run), Nº (issue number), and a date range (often quarterly or semiannual wording, depending on the period). In older PDFs you will also see institutional credit lines to FLACSO‑Chile and the Centro Latinoamericano de Defensa y Desarme. For clean citations, record: journal title, Año/Vol (if present), Nº, month range, year, and page span.

Below is a structured template you can keep expanding as you add more PDFs to your library. Keep titles literal and avoid inventing “themes” that are not stated in the issue itself-FASOC is best used as an archival record of debates.

What to capture for SEO + usability (without turning it into a blog)
If you’re building a usable archive, each issue entry should store the same minimal metadata so people can find it via search: Revista Fuerzas Armadas y Sociedad, FASOC, year (Año), issue number (Nº), date range, country (Chile), and one neutral topical line that reflects the issue’s table of contents (e.g., civil–military relations, defence policy, security governance, regional security, peace operations, disarmament).
Keep it factual: the fastest archive is the one that doesn’t editorialize. The moment you add “hot takes” you also add maintenance. The point here is retrieval and citation.
