Synopsis A World Safe for Capitalism by : Cyrus Veeser
"A rich and insightful analysis of the political economy of dollar diplomacy."-Emily S. Rosenberg, Macalester College A World Safe for Capitalism unravels a little-known incident a Wall Street corporation's takeover of the foreign debt, national railroad, and national bank of the Dominican Republic in the 1890's. Working with the republic's tyrannical president, the American firm tried to turn self-sufficient peasants into cash-crop farmers, with disastrous results. By 1904, the company's narrow pursuit of profit clashed with Theodore Roosevelt's goal of making the United States a great power, thus triggering a sweeping new policyùthe Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine. Praised by Diplomatic History as "a model of globe-trotting multiarchival research," this exciting history covers events in New York, Washington, Santo Domingo, Brussels, and London. "A major contribution to the fields of U.S. economic and diplomatic history as well as Dominican history."-Journal of American History "Veeser joins an emergent historiography, which emphasizes the reception of US hegemony by local elites."-American Sudies International "Meticulously researched and carefully argued, Veeser's book challenges conventional wisdom and offers a persuasive interpretation of the origins of Dollar Diplomacy."-H.W. Brands, author of T.R.: The Last Romantic "A detailed and well-written account of the early growth of U.S. overseas interest"-Library Jouranl "Veeser disrupts the simplistic notion of foreign policy as window dressing for the...class interests of finance capitalists."-Business History Review "A significant chapter in the development of the practices of economic intervention that marked Washington's emergence as the dominant force in global capitalism in the twentieth century."-Hispanic American Historical Review

Synopsis Intervention and Dollar Diplomacy in the Caribbean, 1900-1921 by : Dana Gardner Munro
The commonly held view that the interests of American business dominated U.S. foreign policy in the Caribbean during the early part of this century is challenged by Dana G. Munro, prominent scholar and former State Department official. He argues that the basic purpose of U.S. policy was to create in Latin America political and economic stability so that disorder and failure to meet foreign obligations there would not imperil the security of the United States. The U.S. government increasingly intervened in the internal affairs of the Central American and West Indian republics when it felt that their stability was threatened. This policy culminated in the military occupation of Haiti and the Dominican Republic and varying degrees of control in other countries. Originally published in 1964. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Synopsis Dollar Diplomacy by Force by : Ellen D. Tillman
In the early twentieth century, the United States set out to guarantee economic and political stability in the Caribbean without intrusive and controversial military interventions—and ended up achieving exactly the opposite. Using military and government records from the United States and the Dominican Republic, this work investigates the extent to which early twentieth-century U.S. involvement in the Dominican Republic fundamentally changed both Dominican history and the conduct of U.S. foreign policy. Successive U.S. interventions based on a policy of "dollar diplomacy" led to military occupation and contributed to a drastic shifting of the Dominican social order, as well as centralized state military power, which Rafael Trujillo leveraged in his 1920s rise to dictatorship. Ultimately, this book demonstrates that the overthrow of the social order resulted not from military planning but from the interplay between uncoordinated interventions in Dominican society and Dominican responses. Telling a neglected story of occupation and resistance, Ellen D. Tillman documents the troubled efforts of the U.S. government to break down the Dominican Republic and remake it from the ground up, providing fresh insight into the motivations and limitations of occupation.
