Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book offers a thorough analysis of U.S. policy towards right-wing dictatorships across Africa, Latin America, Europe, and Asia from the 1960s until the Cold War's conclusion. It highlights the evolution of American attitudes towards authoritarian regimes post-Vietnam War, transitioning towards a human rights framework. The narrative contrasts Ronald Reagan's attempts to revert to previous policies with the resistance from Congress and the public, ultimately marking a shift away from unconditional support for authoritarian governments.
