Excerpt from American Supremacy, Vol. 2 of 2: The Rise and Progress of the Latin American Republics and Their Relations to the United States Under the Monroe Doctrine
The United States encourages immigration into Latin America, and the making of investments there, yet views with indifference the murder, robbery, imprisonment, or expulsion of its own citizens, and because of the Monroe Doctrine prevents other civilized powers from protecting their own.
Illustrative Cases
From the Government Printing Office at Washington is published what is known as the "Monthly Bulletin of the International Bureau of American Republics - International Union of American Republics." Under the direction and authority of this bureau a large number of other books, reports, pamphlets, etc., are issued relating to Latin-American countries. The "laws" and "constitutions" of the Latin-American countries are set forth in those works with all apparent seriousness, and an important part of the "Monthly Bulletin" is devoted to a description of the alleged "Trade Opportunities in Latin America."
Through these publications and in many other ways American business men are led to infer that the communities of which they treat are republics, like our own, where life and property are safe, and where there is no possibility of usurpation by the executive.
Let us suppose that an American business man, relying upon the good faith of these publications, invests his money in one of these countries, under and by virtue of a most definite contract with the so-called government; let us assume he has studied all the "laws" and the "constitution" of that country, as published by the Bureau of American Republics, and finds these laws to be excellent and a guarantee of security; let us further suppose that under these circumstances he risks his fortune in a "sister" republic. The questions to be asked are: Will his legal and equitable personal and property rights be preserved, and if not, has he any method of defending them?

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book thoroughly examines the United States' complicated relationship with Latin America and the challenges faced by foreigners in these nations. The author presents a critical analysis of the Monroe Doctrine and its impact on American foreign policy, highlighting its frequent failure to protect US citizens. Drawing from numerous historical cases of maltreatment, murder, and arbitrary imprisonment of Americans in Latin America, the book exposes the rampant disregard for their rights and safety. The author argues that the US government's indifference to these outrages and its unwillingness to intervene effectively have perpetuated a cycle of violence and impunity. By providing a wealth of evidence and insightful analysis, this book sheds light on the shortcomings of US foreign policy and the urgent need for a more just and humane approach to relations with Latin America.
