This text focuses on U.S. relations with Latin America from the advent of the New Diplomacy late in the nineteenth century to the present. Providing a balanced perspective, it presents both the United States’ view that the Western Hemisphere needed to unite under a common democratic, capitalistic society and the Latin American countries’ response to U.S. attempts to impose these goals on its southern neighbors. The authors examine the reciprocal interactions between the two regions, each with distinctive purposes, outlooks, interests, and cultures. They also place U.S.–Latin American relations within the larger global political and economic context.

Mark T. Gilderhus (d. 2015) was Lyndon Baines Johnson Chair at Texas Christian University. David C. LaFevor isassistant professor of history and digital humanities at the University of Texas at Arlington. Michael J. LaRosa is associate professor of history at Rhodes College.
