  • REMAKING the RELATIONSHIP: the United States and Latin America Iii Carla A
    REMAKING THE RELATIONSHIP The United States and Latin America AN INTER-AMERICAN DIALOGUE POLICY REPORT n April 2012 YEARS SHAPING POLICY DEBATE FOR ACTION The Inter-American Dialogue is the leading US center for policy analysis, exchange, and communication on issues in Western Hemisphere affairs. The Dialogue brings together public and private leaders from across the Americas to address hemispheric problems and opportunities. Together they seek to build cooperation among Western Hemisphere nations and advance a regional agenda of democratic governance, social equity, and economic growth. The Dialogue’s select membership of 100 distinguished citizens from throughout the Americas includes political, business, academic, media, and other nongovern- mental leaders. Fourteen Dialogue members served as presidents of their countries and more than two dozen have served at the cabinet level. Dialogue activities are directed to generating new policy ideas and practical pro- posals for action, and getting these ideas and proposals to government and private decision makers. The Dialogue also offers diverse Latin American and Caribbean voices access to U.S. policy discussions. Based in Washington, the Dialogue conducts its work throughout the hemisphere. A majority of our Board of Directors are from Latin American and Caribbean nations, as are more than half of the Dialogue’s mem- bers and participants in our other leadership networks and task forces. Since 1982—through successive Republican and Democratic administrations and many changes of leadership elsewhere in the hemisphere—the Dialogue has helped shape the agenda of issues and choices in inter-American relations.

Paige CSST Working CRSO Working Paper #8 Paper #363 October 1988 Revolution and the Agrarian Bourgeoisie in Nicaragua BY Jeffery M. Paige University of Michigan I would like to express my appreciation to the Government of Nicaragua for permitting the kind of unrestricted inquiry which made this investigation possible. I am also grateful for the gracious hospitality and candor of the coffee and cotton growers with whom I spoke and for the cooperation and assistance of their associations in the conduct of the research. Neither the Nicaraguan Government nor its agencies nor any producers' organization, however, bears any responsibility for the data or conclusions reported here. I am also grateful for the generous help and colleagueship of Dennis Gilbert, David Dye, and Rose Spaulding in the course of the investigation in Nicaragua. Financial support was generously provided by the Office of the Vice President for Research and the Faculty Assistance Fund of the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts of the University of Michigan. The Nicaraguan bourgeoisie is not the same as in other countries. It has very peculiar characteristics. Daniel Ortega This was a strike by millionaires who have forgotten that my government assured them the social peace necessary to build up their fortunes. Anastasio Somoza Debayle The agrarian bourgeoisie of revolutionary Nicaragua is an anomalous class. Alone among land holding classes in contemporary Central America it failed to vigorously resist revolutionary pressure.
