By Aaron, Evan, Terrance MAP of HONDURAS and NICARAGUA BACKGROUND Dollar Diplomacy in the Honduras by Aaron, Evan, Terrance MAP OF HONDURAS AND NICARAGUA BACKGROUND The presence of the US in the Caribbean and Latin America increased after the Spanish-American War The start of the construction of the Panama Canal ushered in an expansion of trade for the US As a result, the US played a more active role in the Caribbean and Latin America OVERVIEW José Santos Zelaya López was the president of Nicaragua from 1893 to 1909 In 1907 Nicaragua attempted to overthrow the president of Honduras at the time, Manuel Bonilla Miguel Dávila rises to power and becomes president of Honduras in 1908 In 1908 President William Howard Taft noticed that Honduran debt was over $120 million U.S. senses instability and attempts to aid Honduras financially through provisions for a US customs receivership Caused backlash in Honduras THE SITUATION Nicaragua invaded Honduras in 1907, and Bonilla was overthrown This ushered in a period of chaotic instability US prompted to respond and stabilize Honduras The US became involved because they disliked the role Zelaya was playing in regional affairs and wanted to protect the North American bananas trade from Nicaraguan influence Military intervention - US marines stationed at Puerto Cortés Marine forces were deployed to stop a Nicaraguan attack on Bonilla’s last defense at Amapala in the Golfo de Fonseca. EL GOLFO DE FONSECA ANALYZING THE SITUATION The US had only played a small role in internal Honduran political matters before this incident There was not a resident US minister in Tegucigalpa, so the minister to Guatemala had been appointed to that position Dollar diplomacy was not very effective; Honduras did not completely collapse but anarchy and revolts were common Devolved into war ANALYZING THE SITUATION This situation exemplifies that the imperialist ideals of America carried into the Progressive Era Remnants of Monroe Doctrine era Taft's vision for money over war was idealistic and not geared towards real-life scenarios as well as Roosevelt's Big Stick Diplomacy AFTERMATH + EFFECTS After 1912, political leaders in Latin America detested Taft's policy and attacked it President Woodrow Wilson publicly stated that he would not engage in special interests in Latin America through diplomacy The development of the banana production industry spurred organized labor movements in Honduras and the first major labor strikes in the nation's history. REMARKS This situation illustrates an example of Progressive policy that did not "move the country forward" The US's intervention did not improve relations or conditions in Latin America and many Latin American citizens felt frustrated with the US CLOSING QUESTIONS In your opinion do you think the US should have intervened in Honduras and Nicaragua’s dilemma? If not, why? How would you have dealt with the situation if you were Zelaya? Dávila? Who do you think had the most physical influence/power during this time period? Honduras or Nicaragua and why? Why do you think Bonilla tried to rebel against Dávila? Would you have done the same thing if you were Bonilla? To what extent does this situation in Central America reflect the current political tensions in Asia?

  • The Regime Change Consensus: Iraq in American Politics, 1990-2003
    THE REGIME CHANGE CONSENSUS: IRAQ IN AMERICAN POLITICS, 1990-2003 Joseph Stieb A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: Wayne Lee Michael Morgan Benjamin Waterhouse Daniel Bolger Hal Brands ©2019 Joseph David Stieb ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Joseph David Stieb: The Regime Change Consensus: Iraq in American Politics, 1990-2003 (Under the direction of Wayne Lee) This study examines the containment policy that the United States and its allies imposed on Iraq after the 1991 Gulf War and argues for a new understanding of why the United States invaded Iraq in 2003. At the core of this story is a political puzzle: Why did a largely successful policy that mostly stripped Iraq of its unconventional weapons lose support in American politics to the point that the policy itself became less effective? I argue that, within intellectual and policymaking circles, a claim steadily emerged that the only solution to the Iraqi threat was regime change and democratization. While this “regime change consensus” was not part of the original containment policy, a cohort of intellectuals and policymakers assembled political support for the idea that Saddam’s personality and the totalitarian nature of the Baathist regime made Iraq uniquely immune to “management” strategies like containment. The entrenchment of this consensus before 9/11 helps explain why so many politicians, policymakers, and intellectuals rejected containment after 9/11 and embraced regime change and invasion.

ISSN (online): 2382-5014 JULIO – DICIEMBRE, 2014 195 U.S. – LATIN AMERICA RELATIONS AFTER THE INEVITABLE U.S. MILITARY INTERVENTION IN GUATEMALA IN 1954 Abstract The 1954 U.S. intervention in Guatemala is a controversial key matter that still finds different and opposing interpretations in academia. In this article the impact of the U.S. coup in Guatemala on U.S.- Central America socio-political relations will be evaluated, through the critical analysis of different perspectives and attributes on the subject. This work identifies, with reference to academic theories, key motives and interests behind the intervention, in relation to the significance of Guatemalan democratic president Jacopo Arbenz’ s reforms in the wider social context of Central America. The possible wide-scale impact of these reforms with the creation of viable alternative model to American liberal capitalism and consequently of a perceivable potential threat to U.S. intrinsic interests in its hemisphere, will be reflectively explored throughout with the intent of proposing a solution over the 1954 U.S.

While many aspects of the overthrow such as the involvement of the Central Intelligence Agency, the influence of the United Fruit Company, and the Guatemalan government’s relation to communism have all been covered, one crucial player in the overthrow, Colonel Carlos Castillo Armas, has not gained the same critical attention. Castillo Armas acted as the counterrevolutionary the CIA chose to lead the overthrow of Arbenz therefore understanding how he received the role and how he performed his task is important to understanding this historical moment.

  • Background on the Guatemalan Coup of 1954
    Educational materials developed through the Baltimore County History Labs Program, a partnership between Baltimore County Public Schools and the UMBC Center for History Education. RS#01: Background on the Guatemalan Coup of 1954 Read the background on the Guatemalan coup, and complete the chart and questions at the end of the reading. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Latin American governments were characterized by economic policies that allowed for liberal foreign investments from wealthy countries like the United States. Military dictators led a number of these Latin American governments. The United Fruit Company (UFCO), an extremely successful American owned and run company, profited greatly from investments it made in Guatemala. The business of United Fruit was bananas, and from bananas it had built a business empire in the Central American nations of Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama. The United States government was also interested in bananas, and had sponsored initiatives to promote the fruit in the American diet. Guatemala became known as a “banana republic,” a disdainful term for poor, developing countries that relied on a single cash crop, such as bananas, and were ruled by corrupt governments. Under the Guatemalan dictator Jorge Ubico, the United Fruit Company gained control of 42% of Guatemala’s land, and was exempted from paying taxes and import duties. Seventy-seven percent of all Guatemalan exports went to the United States; and 65% of imports to the country came from the United States. The United Fruit Company was, essentially, a state within the Guatemalan state. It not only owned all of Guatemala's banana production and monopolized banana exports, it also owned the country's telephone and telegraph system, and almost all of its railroad track.

    The Reason the Reagan Administration Overthrew the Sandinista Government A thesis presented to the faculty of the Center for International Studies of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Kevin Santos Flores June 2010 © 2010 Kevin Santos Flores. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled The Reason the Reagan Administration Overthrew the Sandinista Government by KEVIN SANTOS FLORES has been approved for the Center for International Studies by Patricia Weitsman Professor of Political Science Jose' A. Delgado Director, Latin American Studies Daniel Weiner Executive Director, Center for International Studies 3 ABSTRACT SANTOS FLORES, KEVIN A., M.A., June 2010, Latin American Studies The Reason the Reagan Administration Overthrew the Sandinista Government (86 pp.) Director of Thesis: Patricia Weitsman The purpose of my study is to understand why the United States intervened in Nicaragua in the early 1980s to overthrow the Sandinista government. I will be looking at declassified documents, radio transcripts, campaign papers, and presidential speeches to determine why officials in the Reagan administration believed that American involvement in Central America was crucial to U.S. national security. This thesis argues that the Reagan administration’s decision to overthrow the Sandinista government was shaped by the preconceived notion of Ronald Reagan, the administration’s inability to distinguish from perception and reality of the events occurring in Nicaragua, and to undermine the Nicaraguan revolution as a model for other guerrilla organizations in Central America that could have potentially challenged American hegemony in the region. Approved: _____________________________________________________________ Patricia Weitsman Professor of Political Science 4 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost I would like to thank God for everything.

  • Cuba-US Relations
    Order Code RL30386 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Cuba-U.S. Relations: Chronology of Key Events 1959-1999 Updated December 14, 1999 -name redacted- Specialist in Latin American Affairs with the assistance of Suzanne L. York Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Congressional Research Service The Library of Congress Cuba-U.S. Relations: Chronology of Key Events 1959-1999 Summary This chronology outlines major events in U.S.-Cuban relations from Fidel Castro's rise to power in 1959 through 1999. The chronology provides more detailed information on events since 1994, including U.S. legislative action and congressional hearings and significant economic and political events in Cuba. In the 1960s, U.S.-Cuban relations deteriorated quickly as the Castro government espoused Communism and aligned itself with the Soviet Union. After Cuba began expropriating U.S. property in 1960, the United States began imposing economic sanctions. In 1961, diplomatic relations were broken in January, and in April the United States sponsored the failed Bay of Pigs invasion led by Cuban exiles to overthrow Castro. President Kennedy imposed a near total embargo on Cuba in February 1962. In the October 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, the United States confronted the Soviet Union over the introduction of nuclear missiles in Cuba. In the 1970s, there were some efforts toward normalizing relations, but these were undermined by Cuba’s policy of supporting revolutionary movements abroad. The U.S. embargo was modified in 1975 to allow U.S. foreign subsidiaries to trade with Cuba. Under the Carter Administration, the United States essentially lifted its ban on travel with Cuba and “interests sections” were established in Havana and Washington in 1977.
