Download or read book United States Latin American Relations 1850 1903 written by Thomas M. Leonard and published by University Alabama Press. This book was released on 1999-07-13 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the second half of the 19th century several forces in the United States, Latin America, and Europe converged to set the stage for the establishment of a more permanent relationship between the United States and Latin America. The key factors--security, economics, and modernization--created both commonalities and conflicts between and among regions. In this volume, scholars examine not only the domestic but also the geopolitical forces that encouraged and guided development of diplomatic relations in this rapidly changing period. As the contributors note, by the end of the century, economic interests dominated the relationship that eventually developed. This period saw the building of a string of U.S. naval bases in Latin America and the Caribbean, the rapid industrialization of the United States and the development of a substantial export market, the entrance of many U.S. entrepreneurs into Latin American countries, and the first two inter-American conferences. By the century's end, the United States appeared as the dominant partner in the relationship, a perception that earned it the "imperialist" label. This volume untangles this complex relationship by examining U.S. relations with Mexico, Cuba, Colombia, Central America, Peru, Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Uruguay, and Paraguay from the perspective of both the United States and the individual Latin American countries. A companion volume to United States-Latin American Relations, 1800-1850: The Formative Generations, edited by T. Ray Shurbutt, this book establishes a historical perspective crucial to understanding contemporary diplomatic relations.

Book Historical Dictionary of United States Latin American Relations

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of United States Latin American Relations written by Joseph Smith and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2006-12-05 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the assertion of the Monroe Doctrine in 1823 to the Reagan Doctrine of the 1980s, the United States has presumed a position of political leadership and pre-eminence in the Western Hemisphere. This has been made possible by two main factors: America's huge economy, which has made the U.S. the largest single commercial market and the biggest investor in Latin America, and America's military prowess, which has been convincingly demonstrated in victories in the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) and the Spanish-American War (1898). This volume concentrates on the history of diplomatic relations between the U.S. and the nations of Latin America from the creation of the independent United States in the late eighteenth century up to the present. This is accomplished through a chronology, an introduction, a bibliography, appendixes, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on the countries involved, significant events, major crises, important figures, controversial issues, and doctrines and policies that have evolved. For scholars, historians, and students interested in the diplomacy of these two regions, the Historical Dictionary of United States-Latin American Relations is an essential reference.

Book excerpt: By the late 1810s, a global revolution in cotton had remade the U.S.-Mexico border, bringing wealth and waves of Americans to the Gulf Coast while also devastating the lives and villages of Mexicans in Texas. In response, Mexico threw open its northern territories to American farmers in hopes that cotton could bring prosperity to the region. Thousands of Anglo-Americans poured into Texas, but their insistence that slavery accompany them sparked pitched battles across Mexico. An extraordinary alliance of Anglos and Mexicans in Texas came together to defend slavery against abolitionists in the Mexican government, beginning a series of fights that culminated in the Texas Revolution. In the aftermath, Anglo-Americans rebuilt the Texas borderlands into the most unlikely creation: the first fully committed slaveholders' republic in North America. Seeds of Empire tells the remarkable story of how the cotton revolution of the early nineteenth century transformed northeastern Mexico into the western edge of the United States, and how the rise and spectacular collapse of the Republic of Texas as a nation built on cotton and slavery proved to be a blueprint for the Confederacy of the 1860s.

Book Diplomatic Correspondence of the United States Concerning the Independence of the Latin American Nations  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Diplomatic Correspondence of the United States Concerning the Independence of the Latin American Nations Classic Reprint written by William R. Manning and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diplomatic Correspondence of the United States Concerning the Independence of the Latin-American Nations The proposal for the publication of the Diplomatic Correspondence of the United States concerning the Independence of the latin-a merican Nations was made to the Director of the Division of International Law by Dr. Alejandro Alvarez, then and now a distinguished publicist Of Chile, in a memorandum under date of May 12, 1916. He thus explained the need for a publication of this kind, suggesting both its content and the service which it would render to the Americas: One of the necessities most strongly felt by all students of the inter national law and diplomatic history Of our continent is the knowledge of the documents relative to the glorious period of the emancipation of the latin-american nations. Among those documents, the foreign papers or papers of a diplomatic character in the files of the Department of State of the United States, as well as the correspondence of the states men who then had the honor of conducting the foreign relations of said country, occupy a preferent place. The importance of those precedents arises from the active and efficient part which the United States took in the movement of emancipation of the latin-american states and from the careful reports which, upon the political, economical and social situation of these states were sent to the Department at Washington by the agents which the former credited to the latter. This of course is equivalent to saying that in the files of the Depart ment of State of the United States there is a considerable quantity of material for the diplomatic, political and economic history of Latin America. While many of these documents had been published in American State Papers, Foreign Relations a great portion of them remain still unpublished and therefore are unknown to historians. In our estimation the Carnegie Endowment would accomplish some thing of far-reaching effect, of scientific results and pan-american approximation, if it should decide to pay the expenses which the printing of all such documents should demand, and if it should solicit the acquiescence of the Government of the United States of America for the purpose.
