Book Synopsis Sugar and Power in the Dominican Republic by : Michael R. Hall
Download or read book Sugar and Power in the Dominican Republic written by Michael R. Hall and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-01-30 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of the powerful impact that sugar had on U.S.-Dominican relations as the primary vehicle of reciprocal manipulation from 1958 to 1962, Sugar and Power examines the development of the sugar industry in the Dominican Republic. Hall uncovers new evidence that supports the belief that U.S.-Latin American relations during this period were frequently a two-way street, with the United States reacting to Latin American initiatives just as frequently as Latin Americans responded to American initiatives. Both Eisenhower and Kennedy used sugar quota legislation as a foreign policy tool. At the same time, the Trujillo regime played upon Washington's fear of communism in response to the Cuban revolution to obtain an expanded sugar quota. Drawing heavily on U.S. and Dominican government documents, this study argues that the U.S. initiated economic sanctions against Trujillo to gain hemispheric support against Castro's Cuban revolution. Kennedy expanded those sanctions in an attempt to push the Dominican Republic along the path toward democracy. Although Juan Bosch's election at the end of 1962 and the allotment of a generous sugar quota indicated the apparent success of U.S. foreign policy toward the Dominican Republic, the overthrow of Bosch in 1963 indicated that the path toward democracy was longer than American policy makers had anticipated. This case study in the role of economic coercion in U.S.-Latin American relations during the Cold War tries to present a balanced account of both sides of the story.
Book Synopsis Dominican Sugar Plantations by : Martin Murphy
Download or read book Dominican Sugar Plantations written by Martin Murphy and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1991-08-30 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the organization of production and labor use in the Caribbean's second largest sugar industry, this work depicts the reality of the Dominican sugar economy of the 1980s. It describes the progressive replacement of national labor by foreign workers. Comparing the three distinct sugar corporations, it concludes that all three exploited foreign labor. Refuting modern slavery charges through social science theory and extensive field research, this study suggests these charges resulted from superficial analyses of symbols. In depth analyses display one of the 20th century's most extensive forms of super exploitation.

Book excerpt: What is life like on a sugar plantation at the end of the twentieth century? What will happen if the sugar industry collapses? How do the poverty-stricken cane cutters of rural Jamaica fit into the global economy? And how does sugar make its way from the canefield to our kitchens? The Carribean's history is inseparable from sugar. In Jamaica entire communities depend on the sugar industry, earning a precarious living on old-fashioned plantations. For many the crop even doubles as currency. But as the advanced nations reassess the economic policies that keep sugar alive, time is running out for the island's industry. King Sugar looks at the world sugar business, identifying the key playersproducers, markets and transnational companiesand explaining how the industry works. It explores the economics and politics of trading agreements, the mysteries of the futures market and the technology of sugar production. Based on interviews with traders, buyers and producers, it provides a unique look at the history of this commodity. King Sugar also looks in detail at how ordinary people fit into this global industry. Through interviews with workers on a plantation she provides a vivid picture of producers and the crises they face. The book finally assesses the future of sugar, both in Jamaica and the wider world, and considers the options for those still ruled by "King Sugar."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dominican Republic: Agriculture and Trade The Dominican Republic, situated in the heart of the Caribbean, is often termed the Cradle of the Americas. Santo Domingo, the capital, is the oldest permanent settlement of European origin in the Americas. While the Spaniards were pushing out toward continental America, this settlement became the hub of Spanish influence in the New World. The original Indian strain found in the country has long since lost its identity in the population. Today the principal racial strains are comprised of the descendants of the early Spanish colonists and of Negro slaves imported from Africa. About 15 percent of the population is white, 15-percent Negro, and 70 percent of mixed blood. Like most of the Latin American countries, the Dominican Republic depends on a small number of agricultural products for its income. Agricultural activities have long been directed largely to the production of the major export crops, particularly sugar. Not only does the country lean heavily on sugar exports to provide foreign exchange, but internal trade and employment are widely influenced by the foreign market which determines how much, and at what price, sugar can be sold abroad. The industrial sector is small but growing. Processing sugarcane is the principal industry, but other established plants are turning out cement; glass; textiles; bags, rope, and binder twine of sisal; such products as soaps, detergents, and toothpaste; cement and asbestos water pipe; furfural; flour; and meat and dairy products. In addition, there are several shoe and leather goods factories, garment factories, and many other smaller industries in the country. The Government is encouraging foreign investment, and in October 1962 passed a law which provided greater protection to agents of foreign firms. Principal products mined and exported are bauxite, salt, gypsum, and iron ore. The country contains fairly large deposits of nickel-bearing ore that are being developed. Although drilling for oil continues, so far it has not been discovered in commercial quantities. As there is no coal, gas, or oil produced in the country, fuels most commonly used are bagasse (used in some sugar mills) and locally produced charcoal.
