Resumen
ROMANO, Silvina M.. HEMISPHERIC SECURITY, ASSISTANCE AND DEMOCRACY AT THE START OF THE COLD WAR. rev.relac.int.estrateg.segur. [online]. 2012, vol.7, n.1, pp.211-240. ISSN 1909-3063.
In light of the security strategies prompted by the United States after the break-up of the Soviet Union, like Plan Colombia and the Merida Initiative, and considering the growing struggles for access to raw materials and natural resources in Latin America, this article aims to analyze the American hemispheric security policy at the start of the cold war, as an option to broaden the horizon of understanding of the current processes and security guidelines. The links between political, economic and military aspects will be discussed, considering the relation, objectives and reaches of security, development and democracy, from the viewpoint and guidelines proposed by U.S. officials in public documents, such as the State Department Official Bulletin and other "secret" material (now declassified) by the State Department.
