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. Colombian journalist Clara Nieto reflects with seasoned acuity on the new ideological movements sweeping through Brazil, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia and Argentina, as well as the evolving political landscape in her own country as it transitions from the militaristic Álvaro Uribe government to peace negotiations under President Juan Manuel Santos. The book further delves into the political ascendance of Barack Obama, and his impact on hemispheric relations.
Obama and the New Left in Latin America serves as an essential guide for understanding the region's geopolitical terrain for years to come.
