Description
This volume examines the foreign policy transition from George W. Bush to Barack H. Obama in relation to the countries of the Americas. In this work, contributors consider the major defining features of their respective policies in dealing with security-related issues. Specifically, they examine whether major differences or continuities truly exist between the foreign policies of Bush and Obama, especially given the perception of American decline. The volume highlights Obama’s foreign policy in the Americas, focusing on issue areas that threaten international security, such as drug trafficking, organized crime, and terrorism. This work provides both theoretical and policy insights for academics and policy analysts interested in foreign affairs.

The Obama Doctrine in the Americas is a balanced and thoughtful overview of how President Obama and his Western Hemisphere team have sought to engage with Latin America as its dynamics and challenges have evolved in the context of globalization…an important addition to the literature on Latin American studies, and U.S. Foreign Policy in general.
R. Evan Ellis, Strategic Studies Institute, United States Army War College

What should Washington do next in Latin America? The Obama Doctrine in the Americas provides a very timely, comprehensive, and thoughtful examination of Washington’s foreign policy approaches in the Western Hemisphere; a great contribution to all of us who are concerned about the role and importance of the Americas in world affairs.
