Abstract:
"Complex, sweeping, provocative interpretation of negative US cultural perceptions of Latin America and their influence on regional actions; argues that opinions rooted in myth of US exceptionalism and fear of extrahemispheric rivals, coupled with view of Latin Americans as culturally and politically inferior, results in both forceful and benign US paternalism"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
