Robert Pastor maintains that the collapse of Communism is less important in permitting the United States to escape the whirlpool of Latin American politics than are the new trends of democracy and freer trade in the region.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"An impressive volume... A significant contribution to rethinking U.S. relations with our closest neighbors."--Abraham F. Lowenthal, Foreign Affairs "[Pastor is] probing, knowledgeable, interesting... [His] argument in favor of the North American Free Trade Agreement is powerful and persuasive--and refreshing."--Piero Gleijeses, The Washington Post Book World "Pastor has occupied one of the more illuminating vantage points for examining Washington's vexing relations with its southern neighbors... [His] goal is to help construct a new United States policy, shifting away from reflexive, sometimes covert interventions and from economic handouts."--Clifford Krauss, The New York Times Book Review
