DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is the first comprehensive, even-handed examination of U.S. policy in Latin America during the Reagan era. Drawing on interviews with U.S. officials and his own perspective as a former State Department lawyer, Thomas Carothers sheds new light on the much-discussed U.S. involvements in Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Panama and turns up varied and often unexpected findings in less-studied countries such as Bolivia, Costa Rica, Paraguay, and Chile. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1991.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe cold war between the United States and the Soviet Union provided the context for U.S. policies toward Central America from the 1950s to the 1980s. Nonetheless, attitudes developed during the Cold War cannot explain the specific content of U.S. foreign policies toward the region. Ronald W. Cox argues that U.S. business interests have worked with policymakers to develop trade, aid and investment policies toward Central America. He reveals how the relationship between business groups and the state has been shaped by business competition, national security considerations, institutional structures, and instability in the Central American countries. Many see the state as autonomous and not influenced by business, but Cox argues that business groups have been able to take advantage of specific international circumstances to promote economic policies, thus increasing foreign investment. At the same time, division among business groups has affected foreign economic policies. This book is a provocative analysis of interest to scholars of international political economy, American foreign policy, comparative politics, and business-government relations.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"An excellent analysis of the evolution of U. S. Central American policies under the Carter and Reagan administrations that exposes the roles played by competing strategic visions and bureaucratic interest groups in shaping two of the most dramatic failures in recent U.S. foreign policy." --Andrew A. Reding, Hemispheric Affairs Fellow, World Policy Institute Under Carter and Reagan, U.S. foreign policy towards Central America failed. In this intriguing study, Dario Moreno explains how policy in those administrations was made, tracing its failure to a foreign policy establishment plagued by division and lack of consensus. Moreno shows that in Nicaragua, El Salvador, Panama, and Cuba, Carter and Reagan played out two dramatically different Third World strategies and that neither Carter's liberal internationalists nor Reagan's rollback theorists understood the reality of revolutionary changes in those countries. Moreno's study draws exceptional authenticity from his interviews and discussions with a dozen key Central American policy makers in each of the two administrations and with eminent political figures in Honduras, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica, among them, Patricia Derian, assistant secretary of state for human rights under Carter; Elliot Abrams, Reagan's assistant secretary of state for human rights; and former president of Honduras, Jos� Azocona. Political scientists, historians, Latin Americanists, and informed Central America watchers will welcome U.S. Policy in Central America for its thoughtful analysis and as a blueprint for understanding competing ranks and divisions within the State Department's policy-making circles. Dario Moreno is assistant professor of political science at Florida International University.
