註釋"The course of diplomatic relations between the United States and Latin America has often seemed contradictory and dictated principally by immediate events. In this balanced study, Samuel Flagg Bemis traces the development of our policy from the founding of the republic up to World War II and shows what elements of continuity may be found over those two centuries. Professor Bemis begins with the territorial problems of North America in the period following the Revolution, and the questions of Latin American independence arising from European intervention from 1815 to 1822. He goes on to discuss the Monroe Doctrine, the policies of imperialism, and "dollar diplomacy;" Woodrow Wilson's policy and action in Mexico; the development of the policy of nonintervention and the codification of American international law. In the period of the 1920's and 1930's, Professor Bemis deals with the Rio Commission of Jurists, the Havana Pan American Conference, the formation of the Good Neighbor policy, and the effect of World War II on Latin American relations. United States policy, Mr. Bemis shows, has followed a middle road between idealism and the politics of power. In clarifying the factors that have determined our relations with Latin America, Professor Bemis has provided a solid historical framework for present-day questions of Latin American diplomacy."--Publisher.
