Epilogue: De-centering Cold War Narratives Using Peace Corp Volunteer“s Accounts. 330 $aIn the 1960s, twenty-thousand young Americans landed in South America to serve as Peace Corps volunteers. The program was hailed by President John F. Kennedy and by volunteers themselves as an exceptional initiative to end global poverty. In practice, it was another front for fighting the Cold War and promoting American interests in the Global South. This book examines how this ideological project played out on the ground as volunteers encountered a range of local actors and agencies engaged in anti-poverty efforts of their own. As they negotiated the complexities of community intervention, these volunteers faced conflicts and frustrations, struggled to adapt, and gradually transformed the Peace Corps of the 1960s into a truly global, decentralized institution. Drawing on letters, diaries, reports, and newsletters created by volunteers themselves, Fernando Purcell shows how their experiences offer an invaluable perspective on local manifestations of the global Cold War. 606 $aLatin America$xHistory 606 $aUnited States$xHistory 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aWorld history 606 $aLatin American History 606 $aUS History 606 $aPolitical History 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History 615 0$aLatin America$xHistory. 615 0$aUnited States$xHistory. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aWorld history. 615 14$aLatin American History. 615 24$aUS History. 615 24$aPolitical History. 615 24$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 676 $a309.223573 676 $a362.5098 700 $aPurcell$b Fernando$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01079540 801 0$bUkBuK 801 1$bUkBuK 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484281903321 996 $aThe Peace Corps in South America$92592100 997 $aUNINA
