A reference guide to all the elements of the Inter-American System
from its formal beginning in 1889 to the present, as it developed
into a major, multipurpose regional inter-governmental organization
(IGO). The most notable elements in the current Inter-American
System are the Organization of American States (OAS), the
Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), and the Inter-American
Treaty of Reciprocal Assistance (Rio Treaty) Regime. Today, all 35
sovereign American states are members of the OAS. This book makes
clear reference to the system's interrelationships with other IGOs
and states outside the Western Hemisphere. Unique in its scope and
approach to the subject, this work is intended to provide the
reader with access to information on general as well as specific
subjects. It is compiled with an interdisciplinary approach, and
addressed to a variety of readers from students and scholars to
professionals and government officials. With some 250 entries,
cross-referenced and thoroughly indexed, this encyclopedia refers
to membership and observers in the various organizational elements;
policy orientations of the state members; treaties, conventions,
protocols, declarations, and resolutions concluded over the years;
concepts and doctrines underlying American regional organization;
multinational principles and policies in major categories of
activity; and cases of conflict and other situations undertaken by
the system, including places, events, issues, and individuals
notable for their contributions.
