内容説明

"Under Northern Eyes" examines how North American scholarship on Latin America has tended to support U.S. policy toward that part of the world since the latter part of the nineteenth century. Berger looks at universities, research centers, the various branches of the U.S. government, and the numerous national, international, and philanthropic foundations concerned with Latin America. He concludes that, despite the view that there should be "a distinction between academic activity and the conduct of U.S. policy, the growth of Latin American studies specifically, and area studies in the social sciences more generally, has been integrally connected to U.S. expansion in Latin America and the rest of the world." Its contents - Introduction: Understanding Latin America; Part I, U.S. Hegemony and the Rise of Latin American Studies, 1898ETH1968 includes: Chapter 1, Civilizing the South, 1898ETH1945; and Chapter 2, Modernization and Development, 1945ETH1968; Part II, The U.S. Hegemonic Crisis and the Transformation of Latin American Studies, 1968ETH1990 includes: Chapter 3, The Limits of Power, 1968ETH1979; Chapter 4, The New Cold War, 1979ETH1984; and Chapter 5, The Triumph of Democracy, 1985-1990; Conclusion: Managing Latin America and Containing Central America; Epilogue: Latin America and Latin American Studies in the 1990s; and Bibliography.
