In the book Clara Nieto demonstrates that United States policy toward Latin America has been 'a coherent politics of intervention' set into motion by the Monroe Doctrine, accounting for aggression against Nicaragua and El Salvador, and the invasions of Grenada and Panama. Her history of U.S. policy toward Latin America is enriched by her extensive first-hand experience: As a member of the Colombian diplomatic corps. she was present at UN and OAS meetings where U.S. Cuba conflicts were addressed, and where negotiations betwee the U.S. and Latin America were hammered into place. The book provides an invaluable context for critically understanding both recent history, and the current dynamics and trajectory of U.S. forein policy toward its southern neighbours.
