Book excerpt: Excerpt from Latin-American Year Book for Investors and Merchants for 1919 This fact, and also that latin-american territory covers altitudes ranging from sea level up to the highest suitable for human life - the Andes Chain of mountains with the Aconcagua, feet, being surpassed only by the Hima laya - accounts for the immense variety of natural products found there, and the possibility of cultivating practically any plant, and raising of any kind of live stock. The population of latin-america is only less than 82 millions. Imagine a country over twice as large as the United States, holding four fifths of its population, and you will have an idea of the wonderful possibilities for its development. The situation of latin-america is, in ref erence to population, like that of the United States about fifty years ago, and the marvellous development of this great country took place after that time. Latin-america furnishes American industries with a considerable portion of the necessary raw material. The following table shows the progress of latin-american im ports into the United States for the last decade, as com pared with the total imports. It shows that while the total imports have less than doubled in this period. The imports from latin-america have become nearly three times larger.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Latin-American Year Book: For Investors and Merchants for 1920 With the present volume the Latin-American Year Book enters its third year. The fact that it has met so far with such encouraging success shows that a demand existed for a publication containing accurate and detailed information regarding the economic and financial conditions in the Latin-American countries. There is no exaggeration in the statement that a great number of American merchants and investors have been misled by inaccurate information, only to find, after they had invested money or engaged in export or import trade, that the actual conditions were far below their expectations, and they could not obtain even a reasonable return of their capital invested. On the other hand, many investors and merchants ere too timid and refuse to take advantage of wonderful opportunities simply because they have been lead to believe that all Latin-American countries are uncivilized, unreliable, and any effort to establish sound relations with them is doomed to failure. The truth is that every Latin-American country is a profitable field for American enterprise, energy and capital. The only question is where, when and how to trade with each of them. Not two of them are exactly alike, and before undertaking any kind of business, a careful survey should be made of actual conditions in the particular country with which business relations are contemplated. The Latin-American Year Book was started three years ago for the purpose of presenting only plain, self explanatory facts and figures, giving a more exact idea of what Latin-American countries are than any description found in fantastic books, with which the American market is flooded. Our book has the most recent data as collected from the best available sources. The 1920 edition shows many improvements over the previous ones. We have decided to include, after careful consideration, the custom tariff at least of those countries having the heaviest trade with the United States and in which no important changes are expected in the near future. We have also found it to the advantage of the American business men to include a partial list of dealers and traders in Latin-American countries. This list was made short because postal rates to most Latin-American countries are high, and long mailing lists for distribution of catalogues, circulars, etc., are absolutely undesirable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the United States became an imperial power by bowing to pressure to defend its citizens' overseas investments Throughout the twentieth century, the U.S. government willingly deployed power, hard and soft, to protect American investments all around the globe. Why did the United States get into the business of defending its citizens' property rights abroad? The Empire Trap looks at how modern U.S. involvement in the empire business began, how American foreign policy became increasingly tied to the sway of private financial interests, and how postwar administrations finally extricated the United States from economic interventionism, even though the government had the will and power to continue. Noel Maurer examines the ways that American investors initially influenced their government to intercede to protect investments in locations such as Central America and the Caribbean. Costs were small—at least at the outset—but with each incremental step, American policy became increasingly entangled with the goals of those they were backing, making disengagement more difficult. Maurer discusses how, all the way through the 1970s, the United States not only failed to resist pressure to defend American investments, but also remained unsuccessful at altering internal institutions of other countries in order to make property rights secure in the absence of active American involvement. Foreign nations expropriated American investments, but in almost every case the U.S. government's employment of economic sanctions or covert action obtained market value or more in compensation—despite the growing strategic risks. The advent of institutions focusing on international arbitration finally gave the executive branch a credible political excuse not to act. Maurer cautions that these institutions are now under strain and that a collapse might open the empire trap once more. With shrewd and timely analysis, this book considers American patterns of foreign intervention and the nation's changing role as an imperial power.
