Empire and Dissent

"You can't have one without the other: empire and dissent have defined American politics for nearly two centuries, producing, in Latin America, an enduring social democracy and, in the United States, an equally persistent evangelical liberalism. Fred Rosen's knowledge of Latin American politics is formidable, and in this edited collection of essays he has given us an indispensable guide to a critical topic."--Greg Grandin, author of "Empire's Workshop: Latin America, the United States, and the Rise of the New Imperialism"
