Trends in Latin American International Relations (eBook, ePUB)

Shifting Alliances in the New World (Dis)Order
Redaktion: Birle, Peter; Zilla, Claudia

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Since the beginning of US President Donald Trump's second term, the already volatile international order has faced increasingly disruptive developments and fundamental challenges. This volume outlines and analyses the role of Latin America as a whole, and of individual countries including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Mexico, in the new global (dis)order.

The book is divided into three parts. The first contains contributions on regional dynamics in Latin America: What do global developments mean for Latin America's development options? What are the consequences for Latin American regionalism? Why have regional democracy clauses repeatedly proved ineffective? The second part examines the role of external actors in Latin America: the USA, China, the European Union and Russia. The third section analyses the foreign policies of single states and asks what role concepts such as 'active non-alliance' and 'feminist foreign policy' play for Latin America. In their concluding remarks, the editors analyse the potential consequences of Trump's policies for the topics covered in the volume after the first 100 days of his Administration.

The volume provides an up-to-date, theory-based examination of key issues in Latin American international relations and is essential reading for scholars, students, policymakers and others interested in Latin American international relations.
