  • The Rise of the United States' Airfield Empire in Latin
    The Rise of the United States’ Airfield Empire in Latin America, North Africa, the Middle East and Southern Asia (1927-1945) How America’s Political Leaders Achieved Mastery over the Global Commons and created the “American Century” By Jonathan Ruano de la Haza June 1, 2012 Supervisor: Professor Eda Kranakis HIS 9999 T Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the PhD degree in History University of Ottawa Department of History Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies University of Ottawa © Jonathan Ruano de la Haza, Ottawa, Canada, 2012 i Abstract The Rise of the United States’ Airfield Empire in Latin America, North Africa, the Middle East and Southern Asia (1927-1945): How America’s Political Leaders Achieved Mastery over the Global Commons and created the “American Century” Jonathan Ruano 2012 Professor Eda Kranakis Since the Second World War, the United States has mastered the global commons (the airspace and the sea lanes) with an empire of bases that encircled the earth. These U.S. military bases have not only supported military operations, but were also the foundations for American hegemony. U.S. military bases were key tools of economic domination and globalization, since their purpose was to insure that American corporations enjoyed privileged access to the world’s markets, raw materials and cheap labor. This dissertation seeks to explain the origins of the United States’ base empire, with the main focus being on its overseas aerial infrastructure. By the 1920s, Washington policymakers navigated through the currents of anti-imperialism and pacifism to create an empire that consisted of military bases, but also commercial airfields that could be converted to military use.

  • THE CHOSEN INSTRUMENT? RECONSIDERING the EARLY Relationship BETWEEN PAN AMERICAN AIRWAYS and the U.S. GOVERNMENT. Erik Benson AB
    THE CHOSEN INSTRUMENT? RECONSIDERING THE EARLY RElATIONSHIP BETWEEN PAN AMERICAN AIRWAYS AND THE U.S. GOVERNMENT. Erik Benson Quachita Baptist University ABSTRACT During the late I 920s and early 1 930s, Pan American Airways became known as the U.S. “chosen instrument” for international commercial aviation. Most scholarly work about the U.S. government/Pan Am relationship presents the airline as the government’s instrument. This article challenges this traditional perspective. In certain ways Pan Am was an “instrument,” yet in others it defied such categorization. Thus, any notion that Pan Am was a “chosen instrument” merits qualification. Drawing upon the “corporatist” historical model, this study will present a more sophisticated account of this relation ship, one that considers the role of business elites in shaping U.S. policy. During the late 1 920s and early 1 930s, Pan American Airways built a vast airline network that dominated the western hemisphere. It did so with the exclusive financial and diplomatic support ofthe U.S. government. As a result, it became known as the U.S. chosen instrument for international commercial aviation. This relationship has been the subject of significant scholarly work, most notably Wesley Phillips Newton’s The Perilous Sky: US. Aviation Diplomacy and Latin America, 19191931.1 In this and other works, Pan Am has appeared as an instrument of the U.S. government.2 The implication, of course, is that U.S. officials exercised firm control over the airline and all policy concern ing it. This article seeks to challenge and refine this traditional perspective of the Pan Am! U.S.

  • Pensamiento Poscolonial Cambio Social Y Relaciones Subalternas En America Latina
    1 PENSAMIENTO POSCOLONIAL CAMBIO SOCIAL Y RELACIONES SUBALTERNAS EN AMERICA LATINA 1 2 PRÓLOGO La fuente de todo poder, el fundamento de toda autoridad, reside en el consentimiento de los individuos; el individuo se convierte de esta forma en la referencia suprema, tanto en la esfera privada como en la esfera pública, mediante la figura del ciudadano. (Jacques Chavallier) El nacimiento de la sociología en Nariño, surge casi desde el mismo momento que se crea el Departamento y la Universidad de Nariño, en 1904; teniendo en cuenta que esta Entidad territorial es consecuencia del fin de la Guerra de los Mil Días (1898-1903), cruento enfrentamiento civil de comienzos del siglo XX y que termina con el asesinato fuera de combate del general Avelino Rosas (1856-1901), en el actual municipio de Puerres; nacido en el actual Departamento del Cauca, anticlerical y progresista liberal masón, encarnó como ninguno las aspiraciones de cambio de una Colombia que se resistía abandonar su origen decimónico y encarar el siglo XX, el general Rosas, encarnaba las luchas y los sueños de una América Latina, que ingresaba al nuevo orden internacional avalado por la creciente internacionalización del capitalismo y la creación de un mercado mundial de mercancías. Participó en las luchas intestinas de Perú y Ecuador, contra las dictaduras de José Balta (1814-1872) y de Gabriel García Moreno (1821-1875), inspiradores de las clases señoriales provenientes del pasado colonial, en Colombia se alistó en el ejército radical liberal de Aquileo Parra (1825-1900) en 1887,

We focus on the networked processes through which narratives are told of, for and by multi-national companies embed the development of ‘new imperialism’ and coloniality. We set out to achieve this through a discussion and application of ANTi- History to a study of Pan American Airways and particularly its performance as a maturing multi-national company and its relationship to postcoloniality.

David Lewis Distinguished University Professor of History Auburn University (1931-2007) ii Abstract Delta Air Lines (Delta) is one of the great surviving legacy airlines of the first century of flight. In the annals of American aviation history its origins are unique. Delta’s beginning can be traced to the arrival of the boll weevil from Mexico into Texas in 1892. Unlike other national airlines that were nurtured on mail subsidies, Delta evolved from experiments using airplanes to counter the cotton weevil scourge from the air. The iconic book on the subject is Delta: The History of an Airline authored by two eminent Auburn University history professors, W. David Lewis and Wesley Phillips Newton. This dissertation explores more closely the circumstances and people involved in Delta’s early years up to World War II. It is chronologically organized and written in a narrative style. It argues Delta’s development was the result of a decades-long incremental and evolutionary process and not the calculated result of a grand design or the special insight of any one person.

  • Internationalization Strategies of a Multilatina in the Service Sector: Avianca-Taca Holdings S.A
    Internationalization strategies of a Multilatina in the service sector: Avianca-Taca holdings S.A. case study Estrategias de Internacionalización de una Multilatina en el sector servicios. Caso: Avianca-Taca Holding S.A. CAROLINA FRANCO-ARROYAVE1 ALEXIS MARTINS-CHEZE2 EYAL SIEGEL3 JUAN CARLOS DÍAZ VÁSQUEZ4 Recibido: 01/09/2014 Modificado: 14/10/2014 Aceptado: 04/11/2014 Abstract This paper explores how existing internationalization theories can be applied to a Multilatina in the service sector, using the case of Avianca-Taca Holdings S.A. as an example. This paper introduces the company by analyzing the context in which it grew, starting with the service sector in Colombia, which is its country of origin. This paper also analyzes the international and domestic air transportation industry alongside the history of Avianca- Taca Holdings S.A. It describes in detail the internationalization program undertaken by the company and analyzes it based on three existing theories that may explain why such choices were made instead of others available. This paper explores different applications of these traditional theories. By this token, it concludes that, rather than using a brand new theory and aspiring to cover a large array of services, it is wiser to make decisions with a more comprehensive scope and use existing theories to adapt an efficient internationalization strategy to a particular context, region or country. 1 MIB (c), Universidad EAFIT, Medellín, Colombia, Mail: [email protected] 2 Master student, Strasbourg, Francia.
