Abstract

This article examines the first months of the Barack Obama’s administration with regard to its foreign policy towards Latin America. The basic argument is that there will be no spectacular and structural changes in the relations of the United States with its neighbors to the South in the Western Hemisphere. The main difference with the Bush administration will be in the tone of those relations, as a stronger emphasis will be placed on universal values and on the us responsibility in global affairs. This may translate into efforts to reach out for consensual agreements with Latin American countries in regional fora. However, the region will not be a priority on the us foreign policy agenda. The countries which will matter the most are those whose politics are closely connected to us domestic politics such as Mexico and the Central American and Caribbean countries.
