In The Dictator Next Door Eric Paul Roorda focuses on the relations between the U.S. and the Dominican Republic following Rafael Trujillo?s seizure of power in 1930. Examining the transition from the noninterventionist policies of the Hoover administration to Roosevelt?s Good Neighbor policy, Roorda blends diplomatic history with analyses of domestic politics in both countries not only to explore the political limits of American hegemony but to provide an in-depth view of a crucial period in U.S. foreign relations.Although Trujillo?s dictatorship was enabled by prior U.S. occupation of the Dominican Republic, the brutality of his regime and the reliance on violence and vanity to sustain his rule was an untenable offense to many in the U.S. diplomatic community, as well as to certain legislators, journalists, and bankers. Many U.S. military officers and congressmen, however?impressed by the civil order and extensive infrastructure the dictator established?comprised an increasingly powerful Dominican lobby. What emerges is a picture of Trujillo at the center of a crowded stage of international actors and a U.S. government that, despite events such as Trujillo?s 1937 massacre of 12,000 Haitians, was determined to foster alliances with any government that would oppose its enemies as the world moved toward war.Using previously untapped records, privately held papers, and unpublished photographs, Roorda demonstrates how caution, confusion, and conflicting goals marked U.S. relations with Trujillo and set the tone for the ambivalent Cold War relations that prevailed until Trujillo?s assassination in 1961. The Dictator Next Door will interest Latin Americanists, historians, political scientists, and specialists in international relations and diplomacy. 410 0$aAmerican encounters/global interactions. 606 $aHISTORY / Caribbean & West Indies / General$2bisacsh 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zDominican Republic 607 $aDominican Republic$xForeign relations$zUnited States 607 $aDominican Republic$xHistory$y1930-1961 615 7$aHISTORY / Caribbean & West Indies / General. 676 $a327.7307293 700 $aRoorda$b Eric$01466645 801 0$bNDD 801 1$bNDD 801 2$bNDD 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786604903321 996 $aThe dictator next door$93677161 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03716nam 2201153z- 450 001 9910557718403321 005 20220111 035 $a(CKB)5400000000046140 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/77065 035 $a(oapen)doab77065 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000046140 100 $a20202201d2021 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aWood Modification: Characterization, Modelling and Applications 210 $aBasel, Switzerland$cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2021 215 $a1 online resource (214 p.) 311 08$a3-0365-2382-0 311 08$a3-0365-2383-9 330 $aThis Special Issue of Coatings presents the newest research outcome in the field of the enhancement of native wood properties through a wide range of chemical, biological, and physical agents.
