Ranimer des sentiments de solidarité, affirmer la présence de la France dans les pays « latins » de l'Amérique, proposer une troisième voie dans le contexte de l’affrontement Est/Ouest, tel était l’objectif du général de Gaulle, en s’y rendant deux fois en 1964. Le résultat fut-il à la hauteur des ambitions ? Les contributions rassemblées dans ce volume apportent une réponse nuancée : si l’action politique est restée sans lendemain, pour des raisons à la fois internes et externes, le message de dignité et d’espoir semé par de Gaulle n’a pas été oublié.

Placing Latin America in the context of debates on economic globalization and the dramatically changing nature of the international system, this volume offers the perspectives of scholars and policymakers from across the Americas. The authors argue that the ongoing diversification of economic and strategic ties presents Latin American nations with new options—and also with dangers. A recurring theme is a caution against excessive optimism regarding the effects of globalization. The book bridges discussions of Latin America and broader world politics, advancing critical insights from within the region together with reflections from a global perspective.

"Looking broadly across the Western Hemisphere, with examples from Brazil, the Southern Cone, the Andes, and Central America, Arceneaux and Pion-Berlin identify general rules that explain how international and domestic politics interact in specific contexts. The detailed, accessible case studies cast new light on such central problems as neoliberal economic reform, democratization, human rights, regional security, environmental degradation, drug trafficking, and immigration." "This ambitious book offers a clear and unified framework for understanding political change across Latin America. The impact of U.S. hegemony and the global economic system on the region is widely known, and scholars and advocates alike point to Latin America's vulnerability in the face of external forces. In spite of such foreign pressure, however, individual countries continue to chart their own courses, displaying considerable variation in political and economic life."

One of Latin America's leading sociologists, Manuel Antonio Garreton explores contemporary challenges to democratization in Latin America in this work originally published in Spanish in 1995. He pays particular attention to the example of Chile, analyzing the country's return to democracy and its hopes for continued prosperity following the 1973 coup that overthrew democratically elected president Salvador Allende. Garreton contends that the period of democratic crisis and authoritarian rule that characterized much of Latin America in the 1960s and 1970s was symptomatic of a larger breakdown in the way society and government worked. A new era emerged in Chile at the end of the twentieth century, Garreton argues--an era that partakes of the great changes afoot in the larger world. This edition updates Garreton's analysis of developments in Chile, considering the administration of current president Ricardo Lagos. The author concludes with an exploration of future prospects for democracy in Latin America.
