When the first edition of Latin American Nations in World Politics was published in 1984, it was the only book to undertake the study of Latin American foreign policy seriously and to place Latin American international affairs within a broader, global framework, both geopolitically and academically. The transition to democracy only hoped for at that time has now become a reality in every country in the hemisphere except Cuba. Many countries have also undertaken dramatic economic restructuring that impels them to participate more actively in world markets. More significantly, the end of the cold war has irrevocably altered the place of Latin American nations in the global community.This new edition, completely rewritten, offers an up-to-date analysis of the foreign policies of the major countries in the region, evaluating the impact of changes in the global community on the hemisphere and on individual states. As in the first edition, there is a combination of theoretical reflection and empirical description, and each case study treats similar issues, inviting comparative analysis. Many of the contributors are now senior scholars or key actors in the formulation and execution of foreign policy in their own countries. Together they bring seasoned, wide-ranging, and mature perspectives to the complex issues the region faces and at the close of the twentieth century.

Latin American Nations In World Politics

"Second edition of excellent multiauthored textbook (first ed. 1984) emphasizes themes and foreign policy theory, and addresses most individual Latin American and Caribbean States. Inclusion of otherwise good chapter on the USSR's relations seems incongruous"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.

Representing one of the first efforts to evaluate the transition to democracy in Chile, this book is the fruit of a meeting of key participants in the extraordinary effort at political convergence that made possible the victory over Pinochet in the Chilean plebiscite and the subsequent election of Patricio Alwyn to the presidency. The authors show how the various segments of Chilean politics modified their traditional positions in all areas in order to work together to defeat authoritarian politics. They also indicate the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for Chile's civilian government. One focus of the book is the challenge of re-establishing a stable relationship with the United States, which, it is argued, will be the key element in the reinsertion of a democratic Chile into the community of nations. The perceptive commentary chapters explore the most likely consequences of the policy options proposed by the authors.

From Dictatorship to Democracy: Rebuilding Political Consensus in Chile (Woodrow Wilson Center Current Studies on Latin America)

Lynne Rienner Pub

"Series of eight papers on the prospects for consolidated democracy in Latin America prepared in 1993 by the Latin American Program of the Woodrow Wilson International Center in conjunction with the Olof Palme International Foundation. Selected essays focus on: 1) obstacles to the democratization process; 2) the political consequences of economic reform programs; and 3) the external context for democratization. In a perceptive chapter on 'transitology,' Schmitter argues that the increased reliance on multilateral diplomacy and international organizations in the aftermath of the Cold War has brought pressure to bear on the remaining non-democracies and recidivist democracies in the region. Authors express concern about the negative impact of some economicreforms on democratic consolidation"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
