"INTIMATE TIES, BITTER STRUGGLES offers a superb introduction to the major issues in the often turbulent history of U.S. relations with Latin America since the end of World War II. The book is well-organized, well-written, and goes beyond most textbook surveys by probing the 'inner history' of inter-American relations and the undervalued intimate ties between the United States and its southern neighbors. It is essential reading for anyone wanting an up-to-date portrait of inter-American relations." --Lester D. Langley, professor emeritus of history, University of Georgia, and author of THE AMERICAS IN THE MODERN AGE
Since World War Two, the relationship between the USA and Latin America has been marred by ideological conflict, imbalances of power and economic disparity and dramatic confrontations. This book is the ideal concise introduction to the subject for undergraduate students and general readers, covering and analysing the events of each decade: 1945-1958: cold war, dictatorships and rising expectations; 1959-1970: anti-US sentiment, socialism and U.S. gunboats; 1971-1980: industrialisation, human rights and the violence of poverty; 1981-1990: proxy wars, debt and defiant strongmen; 1991-2005: neoliberalism, drugs and Latina America. It is an ideal introduction to post-war US-Latin American political relations. It is simultaneously published in trade paperback and jacketed hardback editions.
