Return Home Why the U.S. Must Re-Engage In Latin America by Stephen Johnson Backgrounder #1694 Executive Summary Although the Administration has revived the Western Hemisphere's free trade agenda and is working with Congress to counter Colombia's drug and terrorist threats, Latin America is less stable and prosperous than it was 10 years ago. Half-implemented reforms do not allow full citizen participation in politics or the economy. According to polls, Latin Americans have become increasingly disillusioned with their experiments in democracy and capitalism. Increasingly, the United States is the haven of choice for those fleeing violence as well as those locked out of economic opportunity in their own country, and the problems of international crime and terrorism are getting worse, not better. If the Administration wants to help alleviate some of the hemisphere's problems before they demand attention as the Middle East does, it must begin to support deeper political and economic reforms, update its regional security policy, and better articulate America's interests in the region. Reforms Marching in Place Twenty years ago, the United States began to encourage the adoption of democracy and free markets as political and economic models for the Americas and as an alternative both to communist subversion advanced by the Soviet Union and Cuba and to military dictatorshipthe prevailing system. This policy helped to defeat insurgencies and return the militaries to their barracks. Now all of the countries in the hemisphere hold competitive elections except Cuba and Haiti, and most have adopted market economies in principle.

For more information: Street scene in Panama City. (Maryknoll Photo Library) Six years and one election after the December 1989 invasion of Panama, the largest U.S. military action since the Vietnam war, there is little public discussion in the United States of the consequences of the invasion and the future of U.S.-Panamanian relations. This absence of news and analysis in the United States bears an ominous resemblance to the situation that prevailed prior to the 1989 invasion - when even most Central American activists and scholars paid little attention to the affairs of the southernmost country on the isthmus. It is helpful to examine the lessons and recall the unachieved legacy of that popular U.S. invasion, not only as a prelude to the discussions surrounding the scheduled transfer of the canal area to Panama but also as an example of the problems and pitfalls of U.S.-Latin American relations.

description of the project International Scientific Committee authors online chapter ... photo gallery El primer contacto y la formación de nuevas sociedades (Early Contact and the Creation of New Societies) Director Franklin Pease, G.Y. (Peru) Codirector Frank Moya Pons (Dominican Republic) Co published by UNESCO Publishing/Editorial Trotta Summary General History of Latin America published under the auspices of UNESCO. In the eyes of the Europeans, the Latin Americans needed not only to undergo an essential religious conversion, but also to learn a new language and the basic concepts of work and social order. Colonization was governed by an evident desire for acculturation: the Latin Americans were expected to behave and think just as Europeans did. The confluence of two societies led to an overlap, in which the initial coexistence of the two societies was imposed but continued thanks to day-to-day readjustment and the building of a climate of consensus. Contrary to what has often been argued, these social dynamics did not generate a permanent conflict. The characteristics of the European expansion in the Americas were very different from those in other continents after the 16th century. A proper understanding of these differences cannot be obtained from a simple description of the distinctive features of colonization by Mediterranean and English-speaking countries.

Meetings Meetings Latin America Solidarity Conference emphasizes confronting FTAA and militarization Over 200 representatives of local committees and national organizations attended the second Latin America Solidarity Conference on March 17th and 18th at the International Conference Center in Chicago. They agreed that all would emphasize in their work for the next period: 1) confronting the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA), which would be a NAFTA treaty for the entire Western Hemisphere; and 2) opposing militarization of the hemisphere (including opposing Plan Colombia; stopping the bombing of Vieques, Puerto Rico; closing the successor to the School of the Americas; and stopping the so-called “drug war” including the placing of bases in Latin American countries). The Conference was a two-day strategy session in which attendees worked to prepare documents and action plans in eleven different workshops on: militarization, trade, indigenous issues, human rights, environmental justice, globalization, labor rights, democracy, women’s issues, immigration, and agricultural concerns. Besides prioritizing work on the FTAA and militarization, they promised to join the projects that groups were already working on including protesting at the World Bank and IMF meetings in September, stopping the Bush nominations of Otto Reich and John Negroponte, supporting IFCO/Pastors for Peace caravans to Cuba, Chiapas and Central America, endorsing a general call for unconditional amnesty for undocumented workers, supporting the release of Lori Berenson and other political prisoners in Peru, and working with organizations representing poor people and the indigenous here in the U.S. as well as in Latin America.
