Our preoccupation with the role of the United States in Latin
American affairs has obscured the important part played by Canada
and the nonhemispheric nations, e.g., the Soviet Union, Japan, and
Israel. To compensate for this neglect, Herbert Goldhamer examines
the interests and activities of the foreign powers in Latin
America, focusing on the decade of the Alliance for Progress
(1961-1971). Adopting an analytical and topical rather than a
country-by-country approach, Mr. Goldhamer presents a comparative
picture of the foreign powers' objectives (territorial, national
security, economic, political) and of the means and resources (the
migrant presence, affinities, advocacy, models, cultural programs,
aid, diplomacy) they have used in pursuit of these ends. In
conclusion he evaluates the extent to which they have achieved
their ends and sets forth the principles of interstate
behavior--and the lessons in statecraft these principles
suggest--that seem to have been involved. Originally published in
1972. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
