Latin America's proximity to the United States made the improvement
of relations between the two regions imperative in the first two
decades of the 20th century. William Jennings Bryan, Secretary of
State for Woodrow Wilson until 1915, was largely responsible for
this task. Although Bryan had denounced as imperialistic his
predecessors' political and economic intervention in Latin America,
his own policies also had an imperialistic tone. Bryan resigned in
June 1915, but his actions while in office served as the foundation
for later intervention in both Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
This work details Bryan's attitudes toward Latin America prior to
assuming the title of secretary of state, his actions while in
office, and his political stance after resignation. Six topical
chapters cover Bryan's policies toward Nicaragua, Haiti, the
Dominican Republic, Mexico, the Panama Canal Tolls Controversy, and
the Columbian Treaty. The work concludes with an analysis of
Bryan's inconsistent attitude on imperialism.
