美国能够而且应该帮助拉丁美洲实现民主,这是整个世纪美国外交政策中反复出现的主题。到20世纪90年代,它已成为几乎没有挑战的理论,在两党的基础上得到广泛支持。然而,迄今为止还没有关于美国促进拉丁美洲民主的系统性和比较性研究发表--而政策界似乎往往没有意识到这段历史。在《输出民主》一书中,亚伯拉罕·F.洛文塔尔和其他14位来自美国、拉丁美洲和欧洲的著名学者探讨了美国努力培育拉丁美洲民主的动机、方法和结果。贡献者集中在四个时期,当这种努力是最激烈的:从第一次世界大战到大萧条的几年,第二次世界大战后,20世纪60年代,里根年。这本书讲述了一个警示性的故事--揭示了美国在美洲输出民主的努力几乎没有取得持久的成功,而且往往产生适得其反的效果。《输出民主》有两册平装本,每册都由亚伯拉罕·洛文塔尔介绍,并为方便课程使用而组织。在第一本平装书《主题和问题》中,贡献者和他们的主题是保罗·W。Drake,From Good Men to Good Neighbors:1912-1932; Leslie Bethell,From the Second World War to the Cold War:1944-1954; Tony Smith,the Alliance for Progress:The 1960s;托马斯卡罗瑟斯:The Reagan Years:The 1980s; Elizabeth A. Cobbs,《美国商业:自我利益与中立》(U.S. Business:Self-Interest and Neutrality),Paul G.布坎南,《美国劳动力的影响》;约翰·谢汉,《经济力量与美国政策》;劳伦斯·怀特黑德,《民主的强加》;亚伯拉罕·F.美国和拉丁美洲民主:从历史中学习。在第二本平装书《案例研究》中,参与者及其主题是:卡洛斯·埃斯库德,阿根廷:矛盾的代价;埃拉尔多·穆尼奥斯,智利:“成功”的局限性;乔纳森·哈特林,多米尼加共和国:间歇性参与的遗产;洛伦佐·迈耶,墨西哥:例外与规则;约瑟夫·图钦和克努特·沃尔特,尼加拉瓜:干预的局限性;伊丽莎白·A.

The idea that the United States can and should help Latin America achieve democracy has been a recurrent theme in U.S. foreign policy throughout the twentieth century. By the 1990s, it had become virtually unchallenged doctrine, broadly supported on a bipartisan basis. Yet no systematic and comparative study of U.S. attempts to promote Latin American democracy has ever been published - and the policy community often seems unaware of this history. In Exporting Democracy, Abraham F. Lowenthal and fourteen other noted scholars from the United States, Latin America, and Europe explore the motives, methods, and results of U.S. efforts to nurture Latin American democracy. Contributors focus on four periods when such efforts were most intense: the years from World War I to the Great Depression, the period immediately following World War II, the 1960s, and the Reagan years. The book tells a cautionary tale - revealing that U.S. efforts to export democracy in the Americas have met with little enduring success and often have had counterproductive effects. Exporting Democracy is available in two paperback volumes, each introduced by Abraham Lowenthal and organized for convenient course use. In the first paperback volume, Themes and Issues, contributors and their topics are Paul W. Drake, From Good Men to Good Neighbors: 1912-1932; Leslie Bethell, From the Second World War to the Cold War: 1944-1954; Tony Smith, the Alliance for Progress: The 1960s; Thomas Carothers:,The Reagan Years: The 1980s; Elizabeth A. Cobbs, U.S. Business: Self-Interest and Neutrality; Paul G. Buchanan, The Impact of U.S. Labor; John Sheahan, Economic Forces and U.S. Policies; Laurence Whitehead, The Imposition of Democracy; Abraham F. Lowenthal, The United States and Latin American Democracy: Learning from History. In the second paperback volume, Case Studies, the contributors and their topics are: Carlos Escude, Argentina: The Costs of Contradiction; Heraldo Munoz, Chile: The Limits of "Success"; Jonathan Hartlyn, The Dominican Republic: The Legacy of Intermittent Engagement; Lorenzo Meyer, Mexico: The Exception and the Rule; Joseph Tulchin and Knut Walter, Nicaragua: The Limits of Intervention; Elizabeth A. Cobbs, U.S. Business: Self-Interest and Neutrality; Paul G. Buchanan, The Impact of U.S. Labor; John Sheahan, Economic Forces and U.S. Policies; Laurence Whitehead, The Imposition of Democracy; Abraham F.
