Synopsis de l’éditeur
."..[T]he election of Hugo Chavez in Venezuela in 1998 and his consolidation of power since then (especially after a failed 2002 coup abetted by the United States); the election of left-leaning populists in Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Bolivia, Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Paraguay; and the development of the new trade relationship between Latin America and Asia have posed challenges for the United States in what it used to consider its 'back yard.' In this well-written, well-organized, and balanced edition, Kryzanek discusses the above issues as well as immigration from Mexico and Central America, the growing role of Hispanics the United States, and the role of the Department of Homeland Security plays in terms of trade, travel, and the lives of immigrants." - MultiCultural Review
