Beskrivning
Drawing on the research and experience of fifteen internationally recognized Latin America scholars, this insightful text presents an overview of inter-American relations during the first two decades of the twenty-first century. This unique collection identifies broad changes in the international system that have had significant effects in the Western Hemisphere, including issues of politics and economics, the securitization of U.S. foreign policy, balancing U.S. primacy, the wider impact of the world beyond the Americas, especially the rise of China, and the complexities of relationships between neighbors.The second edition of Contemporary U.S.-Latin American Relations focuses on U.S. neighbors near and far —Mexico, Cuba, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Peru, and Venezuela. Each chapter addresses a country’s relations with the United States, and each considers themes that are unique to that country’s bilateral relations as well as those themes that are more general to the relations of Latin America as a whole. The book also features new chapters on transnational criminal violence, the Latino diasporas in the United States, and U.S.-Latin American migration. This cohesive and accessible volume is required reading for Latin American politics students and scholars alike.

'With contributions from some of Hemisphere's most prominent scholars, this new edition is a fitting encore, covering key contemporary issues such as the emergence of Latin America's "new left," the rise of China's regional influence, the scourge of organized crime, and the growing independence of Latin America from the United States. Every chapter combines a depth of historical context with analysis of the urgent issues of today.' - Professor William M. LeoGrande, School of Public Affairs, American University, USA'Jorge I. Domínguez, and Rafael Fernández de Castro, together with a team of younger scholars throughout the Americas, have once again produced an up to date and incisive set of essays on the changing dynamics of US-Latin America relations in a transformed global context. This timely volume is exceptionally useful for scholars and students alike.' - Abraham F. Lowenthal, Professor Emeritus, University of Southern California and Founding Director, Inter-American Dialogue.
