This volume deals with the attempts by the
United States to work out equitable and balanced relations with Latin America, and the complications posed by World War II, the cold war, and Latin nationalism. Political, military, and economic factors are included in this succinct, interpretive analysis of U.S. policy-making. Contemporary dilemmas of U.S.-Latin American relations are placed in the context of historical currents such as international rivalries, problems of promoting economic development, inter-American military cooperation,
and the ambiguity produced by the American policy-making structure. |
