The fourth edition of this widely praised text has been thoroughly
revised to reflect the evolving characteristics of the current
international system that have had a dramatic effect on every
aspect of international relations of Latin America and the
Caribbean. The original purpose of this book is unchanged: It
continues to provide a topically current and analytically
integrated survey of the region's role in the world. Still
organized around the idea of Latin America and the Caribbean as a
separate subsystem within the global international system, the
discussion gives special emphasis to complex interstate and
transnational structures and processes. Within this framework,
Atkins analyzes the foreign policies of the Latin American states
themselves and those of the United States and other countries
toward Latin America and the Caribbean. He also looks closely at
the nature and role of transnational actors in the region, such as
the multinational corporations, the Holy See, Protestant Churches,
transnational political parties, international labor,
nongovernmental organizations, and others. He gives special
attention to Latin American participation in international
institutions at all levels.
