From the assertion of the Monroe Doctrine in 1823 to the Reagan
Doctrine of the 1980s, the United States has presumed a position of
political leadership and pre-eminence in the Western Hemisphere.
This has been made possible by two main factors: America's huge
economy, which has made the U.S. the largest single commercial
market and the biggest investor in Latin America, and America's
military prowess, which has been convincingly demonstrated in
victories in the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) and the
Spanish-American War (1898). The A to Z of United States-Latin
American Relations concentrates on the history of diplomatic
relations between the U.S. and the nations of Latin America from
the creation of the independent United States in the late 18th
century up to the present. This is accomplished through a
chronology, an introduction, a bibliography, appendixes, and
hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on the countries
involved, significant events, major crises, important figures,
controversial issues, and doctrines and policies that have evolved.
For scholars, historians, and students interested in the diplomacy
of these two regions, The A to Z of United States-Latin American
Relations is an essential reference.
