Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Weber (political science, Purdue Univ.; Simulating Sovereignty, Cambridge Univ., 1995) provides an invigorating analysis of U.S. foreign policy in Latin America through the lens of queer theory, one that is certain to spark controversy and debate. She probes popular ideas of how the United States is personified, arguing that a degree of queerness is both absent and present in these perceptions. Weber critically engages the popular image of American culture. Reviewing U.S. military interventions in Latin America from 1959 to 1994, Weber posits that American foreign policy is a set of strategic displacements of castration anxiety. She brilliantly illuminates the cultural anxieties and imperatives that shape foreign policy. Utilizing humor and critical logic, she provides a fascinating perspective on American foreign relations in the Caribbean. Most suitable for academic gay/lesbian and Latin American studies collections.Michael A. Lutes, Univ. of Notre Dame Libs., IN
