| Summary / Abstract (Note) | HE CRISIS in Venezuela is difficult to understand outside the context of turbulent changes in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).
Around the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century, the United States began to lose its positions in LAC. The United States retains considerable political clout in LAC and still plays the key role in its economy, remaining its main source of financing and the chief market for its goods, mainly commodities and food, but the Americans have European Union countries and China snapping at their heels, and, moreover, Russia has been winning back political ground that it lost in the region. |
