Never before have US strategic interests in Latin America been as well-protected or have its prospects seemed, at least on the surface, so promising. Yet while the US strategic interests are in better shape militarily, politically, and economically this decade than at any time since the end of the Second World War, some problems remain. Over the long run, there is also the risk that old problems, which today seem to have ebbed away, will return. Thus, the positive tone of any contemporary assessment must be tempered with an awareness of remaining areas of concern as well as of possible future crises.","PeriodicalId":81666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of interamerican studies and world affairs","volume":"39 1","pages":"45-57"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2307/166495","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68533413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By the 1960s, participatory development had become almost a zeitgeist, and distributional concerns had ostensibly come to suffuse many of the development programs launched during that first United Nations Development Decade, including the Alliance for Progress. It is relevant to recall that, quite early in the postwar flowering of development studies, Viner (1952) had suggested that the chief aim (and test) of development should be the reduction of mass poverty. Both the US Agency for International Development (AID) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), for example, took up an interest in land tenure reform and peasant organizations, encouraging new programs to modify agrarian structure, while community development efforts and credit cooperatives were initiated under the auspices of the Peace Corps among others. Programs designed to strengthen labor unions were instituted in an effort to repair industrial relations systems long subordinated to the directives of political parties and/or governments.

Nevertheless, scholars (Mainwaring et al., 1992: 3,8) contend that nearly all contemporary Latin American polities remain unconsolidated democratic regimes principally because civilian control over the armed forces has not yet been established. Although the armed forces have returned to their barracks, they have retained considerable political and institutional autonomy. A number of scholars (Loveman, 1994; Agiiero, 1992; and others) emphasize that most Latin American constitutions still recognize the military's right to intervene when the constitutional order is threatened.
