Obama and the New Left in Latin America

Obama and the New Left in Latin America is a political radiogram of the transformations that have taken place in Latin America over the past decade, with a particular focus on the region's fraught relations with the United States.

This book delves into the political ascendance of Barack Obama, and his impact on hemispheric relations. Obama and the New Left in Latin America will serve as an essential guide to understanding the region's geopolitical landscape for years to come.
