This edited volume revisits the idea of the Western Hemisphere.
First articulated by Arthur P. Whitaker in 1954 but with origins in
the earlier work of Herbert E. Bolton, it is the idea that "the
peoples of this Hemisphere stand in a special relationship to one
another which sets them apart from the rest of the word" (Whitaker,
1954). For most scholars of US-Latin American relations, this is a
curious concept. They often conceptualize US-Latin American
relations through the prism of realism and interventionism. While
this volume does not deny that the United States has often acted as
an imperial power in Latin America, it is unique in that it
challenges scholars to re-think their preconceived notions of
inter-American relations and explores the possibility of a common
international society for the Americas, especially in the realm of
international relations. Unlike most volumes on US-Latin American
relations, the book develops its argument in an interdisciplinary
manner, bringing together different approaches from disciplines
including international relations, global and diplomatic history,
human rights studies, and cultural and intellectual history.
