— Survival: Global Politics and Strategy
What should Washington do next in Latin America? The Obama Doctrine in the Americas provides a very timely, comprehensive, and thoughtful examination of Washington’s foreign policy approaches in the Western Hemisphere; a great contribution to all of us who are concerned about the role and importance of the Americas in world affairs.
— Betty Horwitz, co-author of Latin America and the Caribbean in the Global Context: Why Care About the Americas?
The Obama Doctrine in the Americas is a balanced and thoughtful overview of how President Obama and his Western Hemisphere team have sought to engage with Latin America as its dynamics and challenges have evolved in the context of globalization…an important addition to the literature on Latin American studies, and U.S. Foreign Policy in general.
