U.S. Imperialism in Latin America: Bryan's Challenges and Contributions, 1900-19

Description: U.S. Imperialism in Latin America by Edward Kaplan Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This examination of U.S. imperialism attempts to reconcile William Jennings Bryans stringent anti-imperialistic statements with his imperialistic policies towards Latin American from 1900 to 1920. Publisher Description Latin Americas proximity to the United States made the improvement of relations between the two regions imperative in the first two decades of the 20th century. William Jennings Bryan, Secretary of State for Woodrow Wilson until 1915, was largely responsible for this task. Although Bryan had denounced as imperialistic his predecessors political and economic intervention in Latin America, his own policies also had an imperialistic tone. Bryan resigned in June 1915, but his actions while in office served as the foundation for later intervention in both Haiti and the Dominican Republic.This work details Bryans attitudes toward Latin America prior to assuming the title of secretary of state, his actions while in office, and his political stance after resignation. Six topical chapters cover Bryans policies toward Nicaragua, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, the Panama Canal Tolls Controversy, and the Columbian Treaty. The work concludes with an analysis of Bryans inconsistent attitude on imperialism. Author Biography EDWARD S.
