This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The findings of the Study Group on United States-Guatemalan Relations,organized under the auspices of the Central American and Caribbean Program(CACP) at the School of Advanced International Studies, The Johns HopkinsUniversity, focus on the nature of Guatemalan politics, possibilities for democratization,and the options available to U.S. policymakers during the regime ofGeneral Rios Montt. Also included in this book are two papers, commissioned by the CACP, that present starkly contrasting views of Guatemala in order to provide a background for the study group's discussions. As anticipated by study group members, the Rios Montt regime fell from power after the initial writing of this report, but their findings nevertheless provide an excellent overview of the debate on U.S. policy toward Guatemala.
Book Synopsis Records of the Department of State Relating to Political Relations Between the U.S. and Guatemala, 1945-1959 by :
Download or read book Records of the Department of State Relating to Political Relations Between the U.S. and Guatemala, 1945-1959 written by and published by . This book was released on 1945 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1954 the United States government actively intervened in Guatemala toppling a democratically elected government. Thus these documents from the State Department show how U.S. foreign policy toward Guatemala took form in the period leading up to the 1954 coup that overthrew president Jacobo Arbenz Guzmán and they show how that policy shifted after that year toward reshaping the Guatemalan government's domestic policies in a way that coincided with U.S. commercial interests. Some scholars have argued that the 1954 coup directly resulted in the deadly Guatemalan civil war of the 1970s and 1980s. The diplomatic cables, memoranda, and correspondence from the United States State Department provide insight on how these events were shaped in the context of the Cold War.

Download or read book Shattered Hope written by Piero Gleijeses and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most thorough account yet available of a revolution that saw the first true agrarian reform in Central America, this book is also a penetrating analysis of the tragic destruction of that revolution. In no other Central American country was U.S. intervention so decisive and so ruinous, charges Piero Gleijeses. Yet he shows that the intervention can be blamed on no single "convenient villain." "Extensively researched and written with conviction and passion, this study analyzes the history and downfall of what seems in retrospect to have been Guatemala's best government, the short-lived regime of Jacobo Arbenz, overthrown in 1954, by a CIA-orchestrated coup."--Foreign Affairs "Piero Gleijeses offers a historical road map that may serve as a guide for future generations. . . . [Readers] will come away with an understanding of the foundation of a great historical tragedy."--Saul Landau, The Progressive "[Gleijeses's] academic rigor does not prevent him from creating an accessible, lucid, almost journalistic account of an episode whose tragic consequences still reverberate."--Paul Kantz, Commonweal

Book Synopsis Affecting U.S. Policy Toward Latin America by : U. S. Military
Download or read book Affecting U.S. Policy Toward Latin America written by U. S. Military and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-10 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, I examined U.S. foreign policy toward Latin America, primarily during the Cold War. I sought to answer the following questions: (1) What factors influenced the behavior of lower-level U.S. officials stationed in Latin America at the time? and (2) How much policy-affecting agency did these officials have? Using primary source documentation contained in the State Department's Foreign Relations of the United States (FRUS) volumes to the maximum extent possible, I examined the following case studies: Guatemala circa 1954, Costa Rica circa 1948, and lastly, present-day Bolivia. In my research and analysis, I shed light on the dynamic that existed between Washington policymakers and lower-level officials stationed in-region, mainly ambassadors. My analysis resulted in the following conclusions: (1) anti-communist Cold War hysteria clouded the judgment of lower-level officials, (2) pressure from Washington elites largely influenced the behavior of these officials, and (3) U.S. officials stationed in-region had relatively little policy-affecting agency. Ultimately, I make a case for a U.S. foreign policy apparatus that empowers lower-level officials stationed in-region. This arrangement will prove most effective in observing, analyzing, and appreciating the nuances present in foreign countries, which would result in a flexible and tailored U.S. foreign policy. I.

Book Synopsis Managing the Counterrevolution by : Stephen M. Streeter
Download or read book Managing the Counterrevolution written by Stephen M. Streeter and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Eisenhower administration's intervention in Guatemala is one of the most closely studied covert operations in the history of the Cold War. Yet we know far more about the 1954 coup itself than its aftermath. This book uses the concept of "counterrevolution" to trace the Eisenhower administration's efforts to restore U.S. hegemony in a nation whose reform governments had antagonized U.S. economic interests and the local elite. Comparing the Guatemalan case to U.S.-sponsored counterrevolutions in Iran, the Dominican Republic, Brazil, and Chile reveals that Washington's efforts to roll back "communism" in Latin America and elsewhere during the Cold War represented in reality a short-term strategy to protect core American interests from the rising tide of Third World nationalism.
Book Synopsis Bitter Fruit by : Stephen Schlesinger
Download or read book Bitter Fruit written by Stephen Schlesinger and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bitter Fruit is a comprehensive and insightful account of the CIA operation to overthrow the democratically elected government of Jacobo Arbenz of Guatemala in 1954. First published in 1982, this book has become a classic, a textbook case of the relationship between the United States and the Third World. The authors make extensive use of U.S. government documents and interviews with former CIA and other officials. It is a warning of what happens when the United States abuses its power.
