Summary

General works on Latin America’s political, economic and cultural relations with the outside world, primarily with the United States and Europe, which discuss the period from the 1929 Depression to the Cuban Revolution, include Herbert Goldhamer, The Foreign Powers in Latin America (Princeton, N.J., 1972), though this important work is mostly concerned with the 1960s; Harold E. Davis and Larman C. Wilson, Latin American Foreign Policies: An Analysis (Baltimore, 1975); and G. Pope Atkins, Latin America in the International Political System (1977; 2nd rev. ed., Boulder, Colo, 1989). On the foreign relations of Argentina, see Alberto A. Conil Paz and Gustavo E. Ferrari, Argentina’s Foreign Policy, 1930–1962 (South Bend, Ind., 1966). On Brazil, see Amado Luiz Cervo and Clodoaldo Bueno, História da política exterior do Brasil (São Paulo, 1992), chaps. 10 and 11. And on Mexico, see Josefina Vazquez, México y el mundo: Historia de sus relaciones exteriores, I, México y el expansionismo norteamericano; II, México, Gran Bretaña y otros países (Mexico, D.F., 1990).

The literature on Latin America’s relations with the United States is particularly extensive. Donald Dozer, Are We Good Neighbors? Three Decades of Inter-American Relations, 1930–60 (Gainesville, Fla., 1959) is a good introduction. General works with chapters on the period 1930–1960 include J. Lloyd Mecham, A Survey of United States–Latin American Relations (Boston, 1965); G. Connell-Smith, The United States and Latin America: A Historical Analysis of Inter-American Relations (New York, 1974); R. Harrison Wagner, United States Policy towards Latin America: A Study in International and Domestic Politics (Stanford, Calif, 1970); Federico G. Gil, Latin America–United States Relations (New York, 1971); Graham S. Stuart and James L. Tigner, Latin America and the United States (Englewood Cliffs, N.J., 1975); Lester D. Langley, America and the Americas: The United States in the Western Hemisphere (London, 1989); and Frank Niess, A Hemisphere to Itself: A History of U.S.–Latin American Relations (London, 1990).
