Bibliographical footnotes.

"The problems that confronted the United States in the Caribbean in the first two decades were much like the problems that confront us there today." Within the framework of the disorder and economic backwardness which existed in these unstable Latin nations, the author traces the evolution of the United States intervention policy in the early 20th century. Maintaining that the motivations were more political than economic, he examines pertinent aspects of the Roosevelt Corollary: the military occupation of Nicaragua, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic; Wilson’s doctrine of nonrecognition of revolutionary governments; and the use of dollar persuasion. Access to Department of State records and Presidential papers of the time greatly facilitated this study of the effects of U.S. policy on diplomatic relations in the Western Hemisphere.
