Beskrivning

In early 2009, at the start of a new administration in Washington, the Brookings Institution Press published The Obama Administration and the Americas: Agenda for Change, offering a roadmap for a fresh approach to U.S. relations with its neighbors. Now, at the midway point of that presidential administration, the editors of that insightful volume follow up with Shifting the Balance: Obama and the Americas, an authoritative and critical look at what President Obama and his team have done in regard to Latin America and the Caribbean, how they have been received in the region, and what steps should be taken in the future.

"For all who harbored great expectations regarding Barack Obama's policy toward LatinAmerica, Shifting the Balance is a timely, relevant, and accurate analysis of why thoseexpectations emerged, why they might have been exaggerated, and how many of themcan be fulfilled. A book to read, and whose reading should be encouraged." —Jorge Castañeda, Global Distinguished Professor of Politics and Latin Americanand Caribbean Studies at New York University, former foreign minister of Mexico|"Latin Americans are building dynamic economies and democratic institutions and reshaping the demographics of the United States. Transnational crime threatens us across the Americas and gives us even more reasons for shared engagement. This timely book, covering such key countries as Brazil, Mexico, Cuba, and Haiti, thoughtfully sheds light on the challenging issues that face the Obama administration now. It offers ideas for effective U.S. policy toward Latin America that would serve the public good." —Jorge I. Domínguez, Antonio Madero Professor of Mexican and Latin American Politicsand Economics and Vice Provost for International Affairs, Harvard University
