Development Before Democracy: Inter-American Relations in the Long 1950S
FORUM FOR INTER-AMERICAN RESEARCH (FIAR) VOL. 11.3 (DEC. 2018) 94-109 ISSN: 1867-1519 © forum for inter-american research Development before Democracy: Inter-American Relations in the long 1950s STELLA KREPP (UNIVERSITY OF BERN) Abstract Even though Latin American diplomats had been central actors in the debate surrounding human rights in the nascent years of the United Nations, the predominant preoccupation in the 1950s centred on development. Latin American politicians generally framed development as “social progress,” arguing that political and civil rights were meaningless unless basic needs were met. Nonetheless, this decidedly materialist approach to human rights is complicated when considering how, within months of each other in 1959, both the Inter-American Development Bank and the Inter-American Commission of Human Rights were founded. Looking at debates in the Organization of American States (OAS), this paper relates the fundamentally uneasy relationship between human rights and development in the inter-American system in the 1950s and early 60s. Keywords: Democracy, Latin America, Inter-American Comission of Human Rights 1. Introduction debates on the difficult relationship between the two concepts of development and democracy In the first report of the Panel of Nine on the raged in the 1950s. In many ways, the 1950s Alliance for Progress, chairperson Raúl Saéz of are the “forgotten decade” in the crisis-driven Chile warned: “The Alliance, like all revolutionary narrative of Cold War Latin America (Grandin movements…cannot be expressed simply 426).[2] This might seem surprising, as the through general concepts of freedom and 1950s in Latin America were a pivotal decade in representative democracy’, because these inter-American relations and in institutionalising democratic ideals were “too far removed from development and human rights in the inter- the needs of the impoverished masses in most American system. -

INFORME ANUAL CORRESPONDIENTE AL ÚLTIMO SEMESTRE DEL 2013 Y PRIMER SEMESTRE DE 2014
INFORME ANUAL CORRESPONDIENTE AL ÚLTIMO SEMESTRE DEL 2013 y PRIMER SEMESTRE DE 2014. Informe presentado por el Consejo Directivo Nacional de la Sociedad Mexicana de Autores de las Artes Plásticas, Sociedad De Gestión Colectiva De Interés Público, correspondiente al segundo semestre del 2013 y lo correspondiente al año 2014 ante la Asamblea General de Socios. Nuestra Sociedad de Gestión ha tenido varios resultados importantes y destacables con ello hemos demostrado que a pesar de las problemáticas presentadas en nuestro país se puede tener una Sociedad de Gestión como la nuestra. Sociedades homologas como Arte Gestión de Ecuador quienes han recurrido al cierre de la misma por situaciones económicas habla de la crisis vivida en nuestros días en Latinoamérica. Casos como Guatemala, Colombia, Honduras en especial Centro América, son a lo referido, donde les son imposibles abrir una representación como Somaap para representar a sus autores plásticos, ante esto damos las gracias a todos quienes han hecho posible la creación y existencia de nuestra Sociedad Autoral y a quienes la han presidido en el pasado enriqueciéndola y dándoles el impulso para que siga existiendo. Es destacable mencionar los logros obtenidos en las diferentes administraciones donde cada una han tenido sus dificultades y sus aciertos, algunas más o menos que otras pero a todas les debemos la razón de que estemos en estos momentos y sobre una estructura solida para afrontar los embates, dando como resultado la seguridad de la permanencia por algunos años más de nuestra querida Somaap. Por ello, es importante seguir trabajando en conjunto para lograr la consolidación de la misma y poder pensar en la Somaap por muchas décadas en nuestro país, como lo ha sido en otras Sociedades de Gestión. -

Primarily in the program guidelines of the Strategy and Plan of Action of Epilepsy for the Americas and the general frame of Epilepsy out of the Shadows, we know that every country has its own reality and characteristics, but we are together in wishes and projects in common, especially to improve the quality of life for people with epilepsy and their surroundings. We have designed some topics that we think are relevant, but are willing to receive new proposals and suggestions. 2- IBE Latin America’s history: A brief history of IBE Latin American activities as follows: Until 1999 IBE Latin American countries participation was restricted to international congresses attendee and to individual work, isolated of every chapter in their own country, with limited contact between them.

••••••••••••••••••• 421019 - 67 fHE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART 1t WEST 53RD STREET, NEW YORK TELEPHONE: CIRCLE 3-8900 FQR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ARGENTINE ARTISTS WIN MOST PRIZES IN UNITED HEMISPHERE POSTER COMPETITION Five prizes, the greatest number to go to any of the twenty- Latin American nations in the United Hemisphere Poster Competition held by the Museum of Modern Art, were won by artists of Argentina. Four prizes went to artists of Brazil. An artist of Mexico, D.F. won the first prize of $500. Two women, both of Havana, received the two prizes that went to Cuba. The other prize winners in the Latin American Section of the Competition are artists of Chile, Guatemala and Uruguay. A total of 855 posters was received in the Competition, 473 of which came from Latin American countries. The quality of the entries was exceedingly high, which made it difficult for the Judges to narrow the choice down to the thirty-four prize winners. In addition to the prize winners 19 posters that received honorable mention will be hung in an exhibition opening at the Museum of Modern Art Wednesday, October 21. The exhibition will be sent on a tour throughout the Hemisphere after it closes at the Museum and the de signs will be placed at the disposal of agencies' of the United States Government for reproduction and use in the Americas. A complete catalog of the exhibition, illustrated with reproductions of the winning posters, will be published later with text in English, Spanish and Portuguese. Monroe Wheeler, Director of Exhibition^ for the Museum, commented on the Competition as follows: "All citizens of the Western Hemisphere may take pride in the way the artists of the American Republics have answered this challenge to produce posters showing their united determination to remain free.
