A Fine Discussion of U.S.-Colombia Relations,
By Roger D. Launius "Historian" (Washington, D.C., United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Colombia and the United States: The Making of an Inter-American Alliance, 1939-1960 (Hardcover)
From the role of coffee producer to the Western world to its transformation into a location from which those producing illegal drugs have operated, the U.S. and Colombia has enjoyed a consistently closely tied relationship, even as stresses and strains have threatened it. This study offers an important historical analysis of the diplomatic and military relationships of Washington and Bogota. It breaks with the traditional approach of interpreting all U.S.-Latin American relations through the lens of the North-South dynamics of an overwhelmingly dominant U.S. versus an emerging nation to the south. "Colombia and the United States" is foremost an excellent account of the independence and interdependence of these two nations from the standpoint of the "new diplomatic history."
