Latin America Confronts the United States offers a new perspective
on US-Latin America relations. Drawing on research in six
countries, the book examines how Latin American leaders are able to
overcome power asymmetries to influence US foreign policy. The book
provides in-depth explorations of key moments in post-World War II
inter-American relations - foreign economic policy before the
Alliance for Progress, the negotiation of the Panama Canal
Treaties, the expansion of trade through the North American Free
Trade Agreement, and the growth of counternarcotics in Plan
Colombia. The new evidence challenges earlier, US-centric
explanations of these momentous events. Though differences in power
were fundamental to each of these cases, relative weakness did not
prevent Latin American leaders from aggressively pursuing their
interests vis-a-vis the United States. Drawing on studies of
foreign policy and international relations, the book examines how
Latin American leaders achieved this influence - and why they
sometimes failed.
