HIST 429 - SEM: Latin America & the US


3 Credit Hours
This course examines the evolution of Latin American relations with the United States from the late 18th century to the present, using a wide variety of political, economic, military, and cultural sources. Although diplomacy will serve as a platform for our study, the primary emphasis of the course will be on the political and cultural responses of Latin Americans to U.S. policy and how those responsible have shaped inter-American relations over almost two centuries. Readings of both primary and secondary sources will provide a framework for students’ individual research on topics that they choose in consultation with the professor.
