Why has "America" - that is, the United States of America - become so much more than simply a place in the imagination of so many people around the world?

This book was first published in 1989. The Soviet presence and purposes in Latin America are a matter of great controversy, yet no serious study was hitherto combined with a regional perspective and diplomatic analysis, examining the strategic and ideological factors that influence Soviet foreign policy.

Focusing on a period between the early 20th century and the literary boom of the 1960s, this study examines the role of intellectuals in Latin American politics. It looks at the way modernization had an impact on intellectual life.
