In a work of unprecedented scope, Thomas D. Schoonover combines exhaustive multicountry archival research with a sophisticated theoretical framework grounded in world systems theory to elucidate the relations between the United States and Central America in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Schoonover's archival research in Central America, Europe, and the United States encompasses public, business, organizational, and individual records. In analyzing this material, Schoonover applies a world systems theory approach with that of social imperialism and dependency theory to underscore the broad, multistate dimension of international affairs. In exploring the international history of Central America, Schoonover describes the role of personalities such as John C. Frémont, Otto von Bismarck, Theodore Roosevelt, Manuel Estrada Cabrera, and José Santos Zelaya; the impact of railroad building and canal projects; and the role of pan-Americanism, nationalism, racism, and anti-Americanism.
Excerpt from Social and Political Influence of the United States in Central America I dedicate this work to the people of the United States. In writing it I have sought inspiration in the principles of Washington, in the ideals of all the founders of Amer ican Independence, and in the broad spirit of the Monroe Doctrine. There certainly never was a period fitter to serve as an example and guide to mankind than that time when so many worthy and eminent men assisted at the birth of this great republic.
