Under what conditions do the governments of developing countries
manage to reform their way out of political and economic
instability? When are they instead overwhelmed by the forces of
social conflict? What role can great powers play in shaping one
outcome or the other? This book is among the first to show in
detail how the United States has used foreign economic policy,
including foreign aid, as a tool for intervening in the developing
world. Specifically, it traces how the United States promoted land
reform as a vehicle for producing political stability. By showing
where that policy proved stabilizing, and where it failed, a
nuanced account is provided of how the local structure of the
political economy plays a decisive role in shaping outcomes on the
ground.
